Fort McKay First Nation wanted to determine the effects of the proposed development not only on the area directly affected by development, but also on those areas of high value for renewable resource harvesting, cultural activities, and infrastructure within the broader traditional territory. The objectives of the report were to provide an analysis of the Regional Study Area, large game, and traditional plants for both the application and planned development. The impact of the application and the development on the Culturally Significant Ecosystem was not determined, as it was beyond the scope of the study. Fort McKay First Nation provided the baseline data used in the analysis. Maps from the 1994 traditional land use and occupancy study, &quot;There is Still Survival Out There,&quot; originally scaled 1:15,000 to 1:100,000, were transferred to 1:250,000 mylar base maps to allow for the identification of resource use patterns. Data categories included trails and cabins, spiritual sites, graves and historical sites, furbearers, big game, fish, birds, berries, trees and plants. The material is divided into discussions of the intensity of land use within the confines of the application and the planned development areas, and the effects on both large game and traditional plant harvesting. The effects of the application and planned development on the Culturally Significant Ecosystem are summarised.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Consultant commissioned by Shell Canada Limited</style></notes><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Environmental Impact Assessment</style></custom1><custom2><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fort McKay</style></custom2><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">CEMA</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
