The evaluation and designation of Fisheries Sensitive Watersheds (FSWs) is a high government priority. The Hominka watershed is a priority watershed in the East Parsnip area of the Williston watershed. It is also identified in the provincial GAR Implementation Plan and is the next area of focus identified in the Region 7 2014/15 GAR Implementation Plan. Confirmation of watershed sensitivity is necessary to meet specific FRPA Government Actions Regulation and OGAA Environmental Protection and Management Regulation tests to realize government's conservation business priorities. The need for this information recognizes the proposed Enbridge pipeline route and other related activity through this watershed.
The objectives of this project include the following:
1) For the Hominka watershed, and using the 1:20,000 Freshwater Atlas, identify and delineate sub-basins of appropriate size for the application of FSW objectives
2) For each of the sub-basins identified, describe the physical conditions and inherent sensitivities using the methodology as developed for and described in the document 'Methodology: Stuart Takla Watershed Fisheries Sensitive Watershed Selection Process (prepared by P. Beaudry & Associates Ltd., November 30, 2011)
3) For each of the sub-basins assess and calculate the resultant Sensitivity Rating
4) Summarize the results of this work in a Sensitivity Indicator Table.
