Suncor Energy Inc. Oil Sands is proposing an expansion of their approved Steepbank Mine and Fixed Plant facilities. The expansion is called Project Millennium. This report provides 1997 fall fisheries information for several small creeks located within and south of the Project Millennium local study area. This study is supplemental to other baseline studies of aquatic resources in the study area. The objective of the study was to document fish habitat quality and quantity in McLean Creek, Shipyard Lake Creek Two (an upland tributary to Shipyard Lake), two small unnamed Athabasca River tributaries and Donald Creek. Fish utilization and access to this habitat was also examined. No evidence of fall spawning activity was documented in any of the creeks. There was some good quality rearing habitats located within sections of the creeks examined. However, many of these habitats have only limited potential for use given that fish passage may be blocked, particularly in the upper sections on the escarpment.
