This traditional knowledge and land use study is intended to serve for two concurrent regulatory applications, collectively entitled the Voyageur project: one for the Voyageur Upgrader and another for the North Steepbank Extension. Directing the study was the key question, "What effects will the Voyageur Project and the existing and approved developments have on traditional land users during operations and following closure?" Interviews were held with the registered holders and junior partners of the potentially affected Registered Fur Management Areas licence holders (#s 2297, 2214, 2156, and 587), as well as members of Fort McKay First Nation, the Métis Nation of Alberta, Zone 1, and non-Aboriginal trappers. Details of the interview methodology and results are presented in the Environmental Setting Reports in a later volume. Issues and concerns raised by trappers are included in project impact assessment section of this study; otherwise traditional knowledge and land use data comes from a literature review of previous traditional land use studies commissioned by Fort McKay First Nation or oil sands operators; traditional land use studies commissioned by other Aboriginal communities with an interest in the project area; and quantitative information on disturbance areas using the McKillop (2002) "Culturally Significant Ecosystem" approach. Following a brief summary of the issues and concerns extracted from the literature review, the baseline study provides a quantitative analysis of existing disturbances to Registered Fur Management Areas by listing type of disturbance and the number of hectares that disturbance occupies. The disturbance areas are then compared to intense, moderate, and low use areas for all traditional uses, and more specifically for large game harvesting and traditional plant harvesting. The project impact assessment presents a linkage analysis, highlighting the key concerns of interviewed trappers, and then determines whether the linkage (or concern) is valid or invalid based on proposed project designs and operational plans. Valid linkages are then examined qualitatively, drawing on biophysical assessments for the project, and quantitatively, again using McKillop's model of intense, moderate, and low use areas. A similar comparative analysis is given for the cumulative effects assessment.
