Book excerpt: Evaluation GNWT DEHCHO REGIONAL WORKSHOP ON THE SOCIAL IMPACTS OF THE MACKENZIE GAS PROJECT INTRODUCTION This workshop was intended to provide a forum for communities and governments to examine the anticipated social impacts of the Mackenzie Gas Project and to initiate collaborative planning to monitor and manage those impacts over the next twenty years. [...] Support also came from the NWT Bureau of Statistics, the Department of Municipal and Community Affairs, and the Department of Industry, Tourism and Investment. [...] GOALS In anticipation of the construction of the Mackenzie Gas Project, there is a need to ensure that communities and the GNWT have the capacity to collaboratively manage the social impacts of the pipeline and related exploration and development activities in the short, medium and longer term. [...] The workshops' goals were to provide a forum for communities and governments to examine the anticipated social impacts of the pipeline and to initiate collaborative planning to monitor and mitigate those impacts. [...] He highlighted the need for personal, academic and career counseling in schools and the college, the need for alternative childcare for shift workers and the need to continue efforts for language revitalization.

Download or read book Breaking the Ice written by Barry Zellen and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2008-03-20 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Breaking the Ice is a comparative study of the movement for native land claims and indigenous rights in Alaska and the Western Arctic, and the resulting transformation in domestic politics as the indigenous peoples of the North gained an increasingly prominent role in the governance of their homeland. This work is based on field research conducted by the author during his nine-year residency in the Western Arctic. Zellen discusses the major conflicts facing Alaskan Natives, from the struggle to regain control over their land claims to the Native alienation from the corporate structure and culture and the resulting resurgence in tribalism. He shows that while the forces of modernism and traditionalism continued to clash, these conflicts were mediated by the structures of co-management, corporate development, and self-government created by the region's comprehensive land claims settlements. Breaking the Ice gives testimony to the achievements of Alaskan Natives through peaceful negotiation, and argues that the age of land claims has transmuted this same tribal force into something else altogether in the North: a peaceful force to spawn the emergence of new structures of Aboriginal self-governance.

This book was released on 2010 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A group of companies asked the National Energy Board (NEB) to approve their proposal to develop three natural gas fields in and near the Mackenzie Delta. They would also build pipelines to ship the natural gas and natural gas liquids south to markets. Together these three proposals are called the Mackenzie Gas Project. This set of two volumes presents the response of the NEB. Volume 1 first describes the project as a whole and some of the factors assessed in determining whether it would be in the public interest. It then looks more closely at the natural gas fields, gathering pipelines and processing facilities in the Mackenzie Delta region. Finally, it outlines the decision reached by the NEB. Volume 2 describes how the project would be built, operated and regulated.--Includes text from document.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The background and history of the various proposals since its inception in the early 1970's for a Mackenzie Valley gas pipeline in the Northwest Territories have been well documented. Within the most recent push of the last few years to get approval and construction started, the Proponent (Including the Producer and Aboriginal Pipeline Groups) have expressed a desire to have a pipeline in place and operating by 2010. As with many ongoing projects in the logistics and planning stages many changes have been made to streamline, simplified, and improve the overall venture. It is these changes and new release of data that was analysed for content relating to requirements of granular resources in terms of when and where, the quantity and quality, and the granular deposits projected to provide these resources. The following data, image manipulation, and data analysis was conducted using a Geographical Information System (GIS) called Manifold GIS Universal Edition 6.5. Preliminary Engineering Alignment Sheets dated February 1, 2005 reveal terrain units along the pipeline right-of-way. The 23 images containing this information were georegistered using a combination of matchline coordinates in degree-minute-second format and visual identification using images from the Mackenzie Gathering System COGOA Volume 4, given in UTM coordinates. The COGOA Volume 4 maps were georeferenced in the report titled ?Summary of Granular Resource Requirements and Availability for the Mackenzie Valley Gas Pipeline Corridor? March 2005 by Raymond Baksi. With the help of the Canadian Spatial Reference System GSRUG's online computation, the degree-minute-second coordinates were converted to UTM coordinates and the Algorithmic method 'Affine' (Scale, shift, rotate) in Manifold was applied to georegister the images. Terrain units depicting sand and gravel within a corridor around the gathering pipelines were digitized into area polygons. One-hundred-seventy-eight (178) in total were identified and logged, 73 of those were unique values. Pits, roads, and water sources were extracted from 1:50000 scale images of the route, georeferenced and provided by Ward Kilby at Cal Data Ltd. There were 126 distinct pits identified, 143 water sources, and 340 road or road segments connecting the pits, water sources, and the pipeline route. Land and water project permit applications for each of the four (4) land claim settlement areas; Gwich'in, Inuvialuit, Sahtu, and Deh Cho Regions were reviewed for mention of borrow materials. A hyperlink document tree was created for each of these applications to guide those interested in borrow material directly to those sections. ... The borrow sites identified in the Environmental Impact Statement Volume 2 Project Description from August 2004 were compared with that of the newly released February 2006 update Mackenzie Gas Project EIS Additional Information for the Joint Review Panel Environmental Inputs and Outputs. This report also estimates the total increase in volume of required granular material at 1.6 million cubic meters (Mm3) for a total of 6.5 Mm3. There were a total of 14 borrow sites added and 22 removed from the official list of granular resources sites. This results in a total of eight (8) less granular sites under consideration for use. Additionally, some borrow sites initially considered primary sites have moved to become secondary sites and some secondary sites moved to primary consideration. This ongoing project has seen many changes over the life of the proposal. As the proponent group moves ever closer to construction, the finer details of the project will be negotiated and finalized. As these decisions are made they should be incorporated into the knowledge base being built by DIAND. It can be reasonably expected that even after construction has commenced there will be further modifications. The Department of Indian Affairs and Northern Development in context of granular resources will likely want to stay abreast o f the issues to continue its efforts in granular management. -- ASTIS (online) database.

A hyperlink document tree was created for each of these applications to guide those interested in borrow material directly to those sections. Imperial Oil proposed several changes to the project on July 26, 2005. The Inuvik area facility would be relocated approximately 16 kilometres south down the pipeline from its initial location, and eight (8) pipeline line segments represent re-routes. These pipeline route segments totalled 77.3 kilometres and in all cases situated such that they shortened the total length of the pipeline. Although certainly not new, the Mackenzie Highway route was digitized from the initial 1974 Public Works Canada Western Region report. Completion of construction and ongoing maintenance of this highway which runs parallel to the proposed pipeline will compete for the same granular resources. The Proponent provided three large data sets, Pipeline Landform, Pipeline Sensitivity and Pipeline Vegetation prepared by AMEC Americas Limited. The pipeline landform images contained detailed polygons representing landform types. DIAND already has a set of data (from terrain units maps) representing sand and gravel landform features, so only the footprints of the 159 AMEC Pipeline landform images were digitized. If, at a later time, the data contained within these images is necessary it can easily be extracted from the georegistered files. With the high transportation costs and limited construction season in the north there is a concern over the correct distribution of granular resources, relative to proposed linear projects in the Mackenzie Valley. A comparison between the proposed pipeline and the Mackenzie Highway potential granular extraction haulage distance was prepared to better understand the competitive nature for these resources. Imaginary haulage buffers were created around the highway and the pipeline in one (1) kilometre increments, five (5) kilometres and 19 kilometres respectively. These buffers overlapped at various locations. This area of overlap is an area that will be ?stressed? for granular resources. In total 95 different combinations of pipeline and highway overlaps were compared and percentage overlaps calculated. Five (5) facility relocations and approximately 117 kilometres of the pipeline and gathering pipeline have been proposed to be re-routed by the project update (10800) on November 23, 2003. The reduction in the total number of compressor stations by one (1) and the re-routed pipeline will shorten the total length of the pipeline by roughly 26 kilometres. The number of primary borrow source sites cited for granular extraction has increased by one (1) to 68 and secondary sites have decreased by three (3) to 46. Despite the total reduction in granular sources, estimated granular resource requirements have increased by 1.6 Mm3. This data was extracted from eight (8) useful images provided in the report submitted by Sandy Martin on behalf of Imperial Oil. ... The borrow sites identified in the Environmental Impact Statement Volume 2 Project Description from August 2004 were compared with that of the newly released February 2006 update Mackenzie Gas Project EIS Additional Information for the Joint Review Panel Environmental Inputs and Outputs. This report also estimates the total increase in volume of required granular material at 1.6 million cubic meters (Mm3) for a total of 6.5 Mm3.
