The objective of this project was to prepare detailed (TSIL C) terrain stability mapping for Wap Creek, located within the operating area bf Riverside Forest Products Limited, Armstrong Division. This information is presented on 1 :20,000 scale terrain stability maps. EBA Engineering Consultants Ltd. (EBA~ completed the project for Riverside Forest Products Limited, with funding provided y Forest Renewal British Columbia (FRBC). The Wap Creek study area (7937 ha) is located b tween Three Valley Lake and Mabel Lake about 28 km east of Sicamous, BC. It stretches from near Mount Griffn in the north to the mouth of Derry Creek in the south, from the headwaters for Cavanaugh Creek in the west to a peak near Joss Mountain in the east (see Figure 1). Terrain mapping and interpretation of terrain stability and soil erosion potential were carried out according to the provincial standards (Section 2.0). Terrain mapping was done on approximately l: 17,000 scale, colour air photos by air photo interpretation followed by limited field checking. This report augments the information that is shown on the accompanying maps completed for this project. terrain stability, erosion, landslide |
