Summary: This research will characterize baseline and post-baseline conditions in the lakes and streams near areas of current and pending mining activity. This will be the 11th year of post-baseline data collected in the Koala Watershed and the 8th year of post-baseline data collected in the King-Cujo Watershed as a part of EKATI’s Aquatic Effects Monitoring Program. It will also be the 10th year of monito...

Summary: The Mackenzie Gas Pipeline will cross more than 600 tributaries of the Mackenzie River, ranging from small (< 1 m) vegetated swales to large rivers. All construction methods, with the exception of trenchless drilling, will disturb the bed and banks of the rivers they cross. Fish habitat use and distribution has not been studied in sufficient detail. Fish will be captured and identified for spec...

Principal Investigator: Hamm, Sharleen
Licensed Year(s): 2006
Summary: In view of Peregrine Diamonds Ltd.’s move to advance the DO-27 kimberlite pipe of the WO Diamond Project to the pre-feasibility assessment phase, this project is proposed to collect baseline data that would contribute to an Environmental Assessment in subsequent years. Gartner Lee Ltd has been contracted to undertake field sampling, which will consist of examining surface water quality; hydrology;...

Licensed Year(s): 2004 2003
Summary: Dillon Consulting Limited has been retained to complete habitat restoration activities at the historic Salmita Mine site at Matthews Lake. The 2003 phase of this project is to conduct baseline aquatic assessments at the Matthews Lake site to identify pr...

Principal Investigator: Buckland, Laurie L
Licensed Year(s): 2003
Summary: The field studies are required to obtain specific environmental information for the study area and will be used in the preparation of baseline and environmental impact assessment reports in support of regulatory approvals. The study area is a 5 km wide...

Principal Investigator: Newyar, Chuck
Licensed Year(s): 2003
Summary: This survey is required to obtain specific environmental information to be used in support of land use permit and water licence applications for EnCana's proposed winter drilling program within the Tulita District of the Sahtu Settlement Area. Emphasis...

Principal Investigator: Monita, Darwin
Licensed Year(s): 2001
Summary: The aquatic assessment is scheduled for September and October, 2001, and will focus on three lakes in the Chevron Canada Resources 2001/2002 seismic program areas in the Ellice 3-D, Mallik 3-D and Ogruknang 3-D blocks. All lakes examined will exceed 400m in width. No field camps will be used, all garbage will be packed out, and all human waste buried. The field crew will include a senior fisheri...
