Abstract | In September 2006, Dillon Consulting Limited (Dillon) was retained by CEMA s Instream Flow Needs Task Group (IFNTG) to conduct a literature review and collect Traditional Environmental Knowledge (TEK) on fish use, presence and movement in the Peace-Athabasca Delta (PAD). This report summarizes the information assembled through the literature review and TEK collection. The main objectives of this study were to: 1) Summarize existing data providing necessary information on fish presence, use, or movement within the Delta region; 2) Collect TEK on fish presence, use and movement in the Delta region from Aboriginal groups located within or near to the study area; 3) Compile this information in GIS format; and 4) Summarize this information in a report to be provided to CEMA along with the GIS database. |
