Summary: The overall goal is to describe the environmental conditions present along the trail and bridge site for planning purposes to avoid, minimize, and/or mitigate potential impacts to the natural, resource, and cultural features along the proposed road and bridge alignment. The priority for observations will be between the turn-off from Bickish Avenue to about 800 m west of the proposed bridge locatio...

Summary: The information collected will be used for the design of bridges and culverts for the proposed highway. A detailed assessment will be conducted. The detailed assessment will include: • Photograph each of the proposed stream crossing sites (approximately 50); • Establish a tape-line across a representative cross-section of the watercourse within the proposed alignment and measure stream width,...

Summary: The purpose of this study is to complete a stream crossing assessment and rare plant survey. STREAM CROSSING ASSESSMENT At each watercourse crossing site (n=12), a fish habitat assessment will be conducted from 300 m downstream to 100m upstream. Watercourses will be accessed via helicopter. The following data will be collected at each watercourse crossings site: • Six transects will be estab...

Summary: The Government of the Northwest Territories – Department of Transportation (DOT) proposes to conduct geotechnical investigations in the winters of 2013 and 2014. Geotechnical investigations will include drilling of boreholes, sampling and analysis of granular material collected, and installation of thermistor (temperature) cables. The geotechnical investigations are conducted to support design and...

Summary: The objectives of this study are to determine the presence of fish and the quality of fish habitat at stream crossings along the proposed road alignment. They will be achieved through observations, measurements, and surveys carried out during freshet. These observations will provide an indication of seasonal habitat use at high water, when connectivity to upstream habitats may exist. Similarly, ...

Licensed Year(s): 2009
Summary: The objectives of this project are to characterize the habitats and shorelines of the streams that would be crossed by the Tuktoyaktuk to Source 177 all-weather road. The impact area will be recorded and referenced with Global Positioning System (GPS) locations. The information will be transferred to a Geographic Information System (GIS) to complete a habitat map for the area. The Hamlet of T...
