Continental Mine: 2003 Impact Assessment Quamme, Darcie
2006
A
D
Abstract: This report summarizes the results of monitoring conducted by the Kootenay Region, Environmental Quality Section to evaluate impacts from the Continental Mine. This historic lead / silver mine, located in northern Idaho, operated until the 1940s. Tailings from the mine were deposited into Blue Joe Creek, causing extensive metals contamination of the water and sediments within Blue Joe Creek, which flows to the transboundary systems of Boundary Creek and the Kootenay River.

Contribution to Thompson River Basin Preplanning Study: Water Quality BC Ministry of Environment
1980

D
Abstract: This chapter presents available data on water quality in the Thompson Basin's rivers and lakes and identifies the problem areas. This is followed by the discussion of various land use activities, notably human settlements, industry, agriculture and recreation as they affect water quality. The effluent and run-off sources are subdivided into point and non-point sources, the latter also including erosion and sedimentation. The first part of this report discusses the point discharges to the rivers and the corresponding water quality problems. The second part discusses limnology and lake water quality. The third part discusses non-point water quality concerns, and the fourth part deals with the potential problem of Eurasian water milfoil in the basin.

Cooperative Marketing: A Strategy for British Columbia's Recyclables - Discussion Paper Bell, Caddell and Associates
1992
A
D
Abstract: Cooperative marketing organizations for recyclable material are growing throughout North America. Traditionally coops have united rural and under-serviced communities enabling them to achieve economies of scale in marketing secondary resources. More recently the move is towards building cooperatives to service larger urban areas. Currently, for example, a five state cooperative is forming to market secondary material for 5.5 million people. The aim of this discussion paper is to research existing cooperative models to determine the concept's suitability in the British Columbia context. No two cooperatives are the same; each address the concerns and needs of their local communities and markets. While some coops offer a full range of services from householder to the end user (collection, processing, transportation) other organizations focus specifically on transportation and marketing to existing buyers and end-users. Economies of scale realized in processing/marketing and securing a stable market appear to be the main reasons for starting a cooperative organization. In addition to these two reasons, urban and state-wide cooperatives organize to ensure they can compete for contracts with other jurisdictions as North American communities implement new recycling programs. Most cooperatives are structured through a non-profit society for liability and autonomy purposes. An at-arms-length agency ensures that profits remain in the organization and are not lost in general revenues of a government body. This discussion paper recommends a strategy to develop a province wide cooperative with input from stakeholders and potential members. The four point strategy includes developing a needs inventory, program design, implementation and program adjustment.

Copper-8-Quinolinolate: A Review of its Toxic Impacts Ward, John E.H.
1987
A
D
Abstract: The forest industry in British Columbia has recently been seeking alternatives to chlorophenols and chlorophenates for the protection and prservation of wood. This search stems from the recognition of the hazards posed by these pesticides. They pose a significant threat to the environment because they are acutely toxic to fish, accumulate in sediments and biota, and contain high hazard impurities such as polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurnas. They also have been implicated in an occupational context, for example, having been associated with the induction of soft tissue sarcomas. The purpose of this paper is to review and evaluate the available information concerning the physical and chemical properties, chemical analysis, environmental sources and distribution, excretion, placental and milk transfer and toxicity of PQ-8 and copper-8-quinolinolate.

D
Abstract: The B.C. Ministry of Environment is preparing water quality assessments and objectives in priority water basins in British Columbia. This report proposes water quality objectives for use by environmental managers and by the Greater Vancouver Regional District in preparing a liquid waste management plan. This report describes the water quality within that part of the Pitt-Coquitlam area downstream from Kanaka Creek and includes Kanaka Creek, the Coquitlam River, the Pitt River, and the Brunette River as well as their tributaries. Presented within this report are data collected to about June 1986.

Abstract: The Ministry of Environment is preparing water quality assessments and objectives in priority water basins. This technical appendix describes the water quality within the area of Burrard Inlet based upon data collected to about December 1985. Water quality objectives are required for the Burrard Inlet area to complement provisional objectives in place for the Fraser River. For ease of presentation, the area has been divided into six distinct sub-basins, each of which is discussed in subsequent sections.
