With the collection of used oil being as convenient as the purchase of your new oil, oil recycling in British Columbia has never been so easy, not only for do-it-yourself consumers, but also for loggers, fishers, and truckers.

An analysis of six years of hourly wind data obtained from the National Harbours Board Signal Station on First Narrows Bridge, Vancouver B.C. is produced to illustrate the effect of such factors as the frequency of calms, land and sea breezes, strong winds, and gustiness on a number of industrial and recreational activities.

The Water Resources Sevice of the British Columbia Department of Lands, Forests and Water Resources (1966) has reported the findings of an investigation of the Shuswap-Okangan Lake Water Supply Canal, which was made under the auspices of the Agricultural Rehabilitation and Development Act.

The study in 1968 was limited to two Okanagan lakes namely Skaha and Osoyoos. The monitoring program of 1967 indicated the need for a more detailed study of these two lakes. This report shows high algal counts of bloom populations during two periods in the summer.

Intro: The Department of Lands, Forests and Water Resources, through the office of the Deputy Minister of Water Resources, requested that B.C. Research undertake a literature investigation into the ability and feasibility of discharging mine-mill wastes by various methods and techniques into fresh and salt water. The aim of the investigation is to indicate those situations where the disposal methods and conditions may be considered satisfactory and unsatisfactory. In cases where a reasonable doubt as to the unacceptable effect on environment is considered to exist, an attempt should be made to define the critical factors or circumstances.
Summary: The literature with regard to the effect of mining and milling wastes on the environment was surveyed in detail back to 1950. This survey covered the methods of disposal of stripping waste and tailings, the solubility and toxicity of various components of these wastes, as well as the physical damage done by solid components of the waste. The study also touched on the reclamation and reuse of mining wastes after active mining ceased.
Recommendations are made as to the most acceptable procedures for waste disposal from an environmental point of view. No attempt has been made to assess these recommendations from an economic standpoint.

In conjunction with the Joint Federal-Provincial Okanagan Basin Study, Task 103 "Estimate of Future Loadings of Phosphorus and Nitrogen to the Okanagan Lake System", has been established to provide an estimate of the overall loadings of total nitrogen, total phosphorus and orthophosphorus to the main valley lakes for the years 1980, 2000 and 2020. This report outlines the various methods and procedures used to calculate the projected loadings.
