CASE STUDY
TALISMAN ENERGY INC – WEST FEDERAL D-28-H/94-B-7–WELLSITE AND PIPELINE DEVELOPMENT
Talisman looked to drill an exploratory natural gas well adjacent to the Graham River in northeastern British Columbia. The ideal well location was in the middle of a proposed caribou movement corridor for the Graham Herd of Northern Caribou. In order to drill the well and mitigate the Ministry of Environment’s concerns, Eco-Web prepared a Wildlife Mitigation Plan to cover the construction, drilling and pipeline tie-in of this location. Eco-Web also actively monitored the entire development, recording wildlife activity, providing education and recommendations to on-site personnel and dealing with issues in an iterative manner, so as to adaptively manage this project and minimize the impact on this declining caribou herd.
SCIENCE COMMUNITY AND ENVIRONMENTAL KNOWLEDGE FUND – AERIAL MOOSE SURVEY in NORTHEAST BC 2013
Eco-Web completed an aerial moose survey using the Distance Sampling technique. The survey was conducted to estimate moose abundance within seven Core Caribou Areas and one Resource Review Area in northeastern British Columbia. The abundance of moose within these areas will inform biologists responsible for measuring effectiveness of RRAs and CCAs as a component of the Boreal Caribou Implementation Plan for ongoing management of boreal caribou in BC. A total of 3,931 kms of transect was flown within a combined area of 14,516 km2
