Summary: The project will look at the effectiveness of created fish habitat within the on-site Panda Diversion Channel. Assessments will include fish use, invertebrate use, stability and function on a seasonal and yearly basis. Assessments will include the collection of fish (all to be released live), macroinvertebrates, the identification of habitat features, substrate assessments, and hydrology and hydra...

Principal Investigator: Kalich, Laura
Licensed Year(s): 1996
Summary: The work will include seven aspects of research. Water quality will be done through a number of sampling locations at different times of the year. A hydrology study will measure high water discharge and stage measurements at seven streams in the vicinity of the proposed all-weather road. Bathymetric surveys will conducted on lex lake and six smaller un-named lakes in the vicinity of the propos...

Principal Investigator: Edwards, Thomas W.D.
Licensed Year(s): 1993
Summary: The proposed research is part of an ongoing program of hydrological studies in the north aimed at improving our understanding of how water cycles through natural drainage systems. This year, I will examine water evaporation on lakes and ponds that are located on mine sites: results from this research will aid in the design of better tailings impoundments containing mine wastes/contaminants....
