The fourth year of the Peace/Williston Wildlife Compensation Program, and the third full year of work has now concluded. The Compensation Program is a B.C. Hydro/B.C. Environment joint venture to enhance and protect wildlife resources affected by the construction and operation of the W.A.C. Bennett and Peace Canyon dams. The Wildlife Program is financed by the interest from a $11 million fund established by B.C. Hydro to compensate fish and wildlife resources in the Williston watershed: $5 million for wildlife and $6 million for fisheries. A broad range of projects was undertaken by the Wildlife Program this year. Continuing projects included Caribou Habitat Selection (Omineca Mountains), Peace Habitat Selection (sheep, elk and caribou), Donna Creek/Forestry Biodiversity, and Ungulate Diet Analysis. Projects that are continuing, but occurring at new sites, include Forage Enhancement (both prescribed burning and manual cutting), Wetlands Enhancement, and Habitat Mapping. New projects in the 1992/93 fiscal are Upland Furbearer, Elk Transplant Feasibility, Dunlevy Wildlife Viewing, and Russel Sheep Inventory. For purposes of summarizing program expenditures, the Wildlife Program was divided into six categories: administration, planning, public consultation, inventory, enhancement, and evaluation. Some of the projects fall into a single category (eg. Donna Creek/Forestry Biodiversity [evaluation], Habitat Mapping [inventory]), while others span the spectrum of project categories depending on the stage of the project (eg. Forage Enhancement; site assessment [inventory], prescribed burning or manual cutting [enhancement], and post-treatment vegetation monitoring [evaluation]). This report provides an overview of the Wildlife Compensation Program for the 1992/93 fiscal year (April 1, 1992 to March 31, 1993), including a project and financial summary. As well, a list of all reports produced by or for the Wildlife Program, or relating to the Williston watershed, is presented in the Appendix.
