The objectives of this section of the Fort Hills project environmental impact assessment was to present historical and modern-day traditional land use activities, and "consider the direct and indirect effects industrial development has on the opportunity and ability to carry out TLU pursuits." Interviews with trapline holder families were held in November 2000 (field ground-truthing was to have taken place after the release of this report). The traditional environmental knowledge resultant from interviews and mapping exercises was incorporated into the environmental impact assessment as a whole, while this section outlines the potential impacts on key traditionally used resources and associated harvesting activities. The author notes that "The impact assessment for qualitative parameters is based on available information and professional judgment," while the section on traditionally used plants has been developed from the vegetation and wetlands section of the larger environmental impact assessment. The report begins by outlining the results of an internal issue scoping and the selection of key indicator resources. Baseline conditions of the project area in 2000 are overviewed. The bulk of the report is made up of the results of the impact analysis, organized by key questions. The key questions asked are "What is the cumulative impact to regional traditional lands and traditional land use?" "What are the main concerns of the Aboriginal people who could be affected?" and "What are the potential impacts to traditional resources and land use practices during peak project operations and post-closure?" Under the section introduced by the latter question, there is extensive information on trapping, fishing, and harvesting resources. Habitat Suitability Index modelling was completed for moose, lynx, marten, black bear, snowshoe hare, and waterfowl. Core security modelling was done for moose, black bear, and lynx. Accessible ecosites are detailed for eight different key plant species. There is no conclusion to the report, but the author notes in an introductory section that "General comments regarding impact[s], [their] magnitude, recovery period[s], whether positive or neutral/negative and possible mitigation are made [throughout] if appropriate."
