| Abstract/Description or Keywords |
The objectives of the project were the following: - To re-map, at Terrain Survey Intensity Level (TSIL) C, terrain (surfcial materials, landforms, and geomorphic processes) at a scale of 1 :20,000 for portions of the community watersheds of Tranquille River-Watching Creek and Peterson-Rosen creeks. - To produce derivative interpretations of terrain stability, surface erosion potential, and sediment delivery potential, which indicate an expected response of terrain in the re-mapped areas to conventional forestry operations (road construction and clearcut harvesting). - To capture all the new mapping and polygon at ribute data in digital form which is fully compatible with provincial standards for tJrrain stability mapping; the newly mapped polygons will seamlessly merge with retained original polygons but original polygon attribute data is not to be modified. - To prepare a report describing the mapping proii ct, including: survey methods and reliability, physical environment of the study area, surfcial geology and materials, slope processes and hazards, and criteria for blaSSifYing terrain stability, surface erosion potential, and sediment delivery potential |
