Abstract:
In February 1993, the last of five fast response fireboats was delivered by Celtic Shipyards (1988) Ltd. to serve the Port of Vancouver. This marked the culmination of a lengthy and sometimes tedious process during which five municipal governments and the federally controlled Vancouver Port Corporation agreed on a shared responsibility in the provision of waterborne fire protection to Vancouver Harbour. This paper describes the genesis of the five new vessels, from planning, to concept definition, to detail design, through construction and testing. The paper is divided into parts representing the chronological development of the vessels, each part authored by the person whose organization was responsible for the particular phase of the project.

Abstract:
The aim of the study was to report the survival of open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) of Vancouver B fractures associated with the Exeter Stem (ES) at a minimum of 5 years.This retrospective cohort study assessed 129 consecutive patients with Vancouver B type fractures treated with ORIF from 2008-2016 at a minimum of 5 years. Patient records were examined, and the following recorded: details of primary prosthesis, details of injury, Vancouver classification, details of operative management, complications, and requirement for reoperation. Data was analysed using SPSS. Survival analysis was undertaken using the endpoint ‘reoperation for any reason’.Mean age at fracture was 78.2 (SD10.6, 46-96) and 54 (43%) were female. Vancouver subclassifications were: 24% B1, 70.5% B2 and 5.5% B3. For all Vancouver B fractures, Kaplan Meier analysis demonstrated a 5 year survival free from reoperation of 88.8% (82.0-94.7 95%CI). Fourteen patients required reoperation, most commonly within the first year for non-union and plate fracture (5.4%). Five-year survival for any reoperation differed significantly according to fracture type (p=0.016) and was worst in B1s: B1 76.6% (61.3-91.9); B2 92.6% 986.9-98.3); and 100% of B3. Univariate analysis identified B1 type (p=0.008) and a transverse fracture pattern (p=0.003) to be significantly associated with the need for reoperation.Adopting a strategy of fixation of all Vancouver B fractures involving the ES where the fracture was anatomically reducible and the bone cement interface was well-fixed was associated with a 5 year survival, free from reoperation of 88.8%.

Abstract:
The east coast ports of Montreal, Quebec, Saint John and Halifax, together with Vancouver on the west coast, have functioned as Canada's leading general cargo ports throughout much of the nation's history. Both competitive and complementary relationships have existed between them at various times, and the relative importance of each port has fluctuated in response to changes in transport technology and trading patterns. Before Confederation, Quebec was the leading port, but it soon lost this leadership to Montreal, as the steamship displaced the sailing vessel and the St. Lawrence Ship Channel was widened and deepened. Montreal dominated Canada's shipping trade for many decades until the recent rise of Vancouver finally overshadowed it. During their lengthy history all five ports have managed to survive periods of adversity and maintain their importance and respective roles in the nation's shipping trade, despite the appearance of many new competitors.

Abstract:
August 2000 saw the debut of the ambitious new Festival Vancouver. Ninety concerts and three operas (five of these world premieres) filled seventeen days, each day packed with a weekday noon-hour concert in the Alcon Beethoven Plus Series, a 5:00 p.m. choral series called Choral Connections, a major evening performance in the F.R. Graham Main Stage Series or an opera and a more intimate show in the 11:00 p.m. Late-Night Series. Weekends added a group of concerts at UBC’s First Nations Longhouse; Hallelujah Handel!, a musical theatre production for children; and a four-concert collection at the Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Classical Chinese Garden. As well, in a special day-long project, the Complete Cycle of String Quartets by R. Murray Schafer were performed by the Molinari, the Penderecki and the St. Lawrence quartets at the Chan Centre.

Abstract:
Collaborative partnerships—featuring intergovernmental and/or public–private sector cooperation—have been identified as a leading organisational expression of the ‘new urban governance’. The paper examines the Vancouver Agreement—an urban development compact between the governments of Canada, British Columbia, and the City of Vancouver. Signed in March 2000 for a five-year term, and renewed in April 2005, the Vancouver Agreement has been widely acclaimed as an example of successful collaborative working, addressed to the revitalisation of the city's Downtown Eastside. The origins of the agreement are explained in the context of an urban crisis in the Downtown Eastside, where established policies were seen to be failing. High-level political support for a new governance approach led to the adoption of an urban development partnership, and the paper sets out its structure and strategic programmes of action. Benchmarked against conditions for effective intergovernmental working posited in the public administration literature, the paper then analyses five procedural attributes of the partnership: resource sharing, leadership, community involvement, mutual learning, and horizontal accountability. Concluding observations are offered on the long-term prospects for the Vancouver Agreement.

I was running along Main Street late on a September evening. I was clutching a dozen handbills. I was short of food and sleep. I had too little time to cover the six blocks from the Anza Club to the Brunhanski Studio by 11. Suddenly I identified a feeling I had experienced previously only at Edinburgh Festival Fringe, not so much a runner’s high as a theatre-buff’s buzz. This comes from seeing four or five shows in quick succession, in varied spaces, each an unknown – possibly a waste of time, perhaps a pleasant surprise.

Full text
Abstract:
Over 5 years, macrofungi from six habitats in Clayoquot Sound, Vancouver Island, British Columbia, were documented. Habitats were categorized as dune, spruce fringe, old-growth rainforest, second-growth forest, bog, or estuarine. All but the second-growth forest are natural ecosystems. A total of 551 taxa of macrofungi were recorded. Between 17% and 36% of the species in any one habitat were found only in that habitat. The most frequently encountered and ubiquitous species was Craterellus tubaeformis (Fr.) Quel., found in all years, habitats, and sites. Of the 551 taxa, only 28 were found every year, and 308 were found in only 1 year. Rare species that were recorded include Cordyceps ravenelii Berkeley & Curtis, Hygrophorus inocybiformis Smith, and Tricholoma apium Schaeffer in the dunes and Stereopsis humphreyi (Burt) Redhead in the spruce fringe. Similarities between habitats based on taxa in common showed that bog and estuarine habitats had only 9%–17% in common with each other and the other habitats, whereas dune, spruce fringe, and the two forest types shared 21%–31% of their species. Old-growth rainforest yielded approximately 4 times as many species as bog and estuarine habitats, and approximately 1.5 times as many as the other three habitats.Key words: Clayoquot Sound, Vancouver Island, macrofungi, habitats, biodiversity.

Full text
Abstract:
As far as stage directors are concerned, the community in Vancouver is comprised of a few mainstream theatres, a couple of layers of alternative companies, and some individual artists. Among the alternative theatres are several artistic directors whose body of work has drawn a good deal of attention here. Since these directors run their own companies, and sometimes their own spaces too, they probably have more latitude in play selection than either free-lance directors or mainstream companies. The kinds of plays they choose, in turn, largely determine their role in the theatre community. Despite their broad impact on theatre locally, however, these directors are not well known outside Vancouver. This article is intended to introduce you to five of them.

Abstract:
Abstract Food banks have grown substantially in Canada since the 1980s but little is known about patterns or predictors of engagement including frequency or duration of service use. This study examined food bank program data from a large food bank organization in Vancouver, Canada, finding that between January 1992 and June 2017, at least 116,963 individuals made over 2 million food bank visits. The majority of members were engaged for a short time and came for relatively few visits, but 9% of members engaged in longer-term episodic or ongoing usage over several years, accounting for 65% of all visits. Results from cluster and regression analyses found that documented health and mobility challenges, larger household size, primary income source, and older age were predictors of higher frequency and duration of service usage. Findings add to growing critical examinations of the “emergency food system” highlighting the need for better understanding of the broader social policies influencing food bank use.

Andrew, Anne. "Lead and strontium isotope study of five volcanic and intrusive rock suites and related mineral deposits, Vancouver Island, British Columbia." Thesis, University of British Columbia, 1987. http://hdl.handle.net/2429/26953.

Full text
Abstract:
Lead isotope compositions have been obtained from five major volcanic and intrusive rock suites and several ore deposits on Vancouver Island. Lead, uranium and thorium concentrations and strontium isotope ratios have been obtained for a subset of these samples. The rock suites examined are the Paleozoic Sicker Group, Triassic Karmutsen Formation, Jurassic Island Intrusions and Bonanza Group volcanic rocks, and the Eocene Catface intrusions. Isotope geochemistry of the Sicker Group is consistent with the interpretation that it formed as an island arc. Relatively high 207pb/204pb ratios indicate sediment involvement in the subduction process, which suggests that the Sicker Group formed close to a continent. Buttle Lake ore deposits display decreasingly radiogenic lead isotope ratios with time, suggesting that the associated magmas become increasingly primitive. This supports the hypothesis that these deposits formed during the establishment of rifting in a back-arc environment. Karmutsen Formation flood basalts display isotopic mixing between an ocean island-type mantle source and average crust. Isotopic evidence is used to support a Northern Hemisphere origin for these basalts. Mixing is apparent in the lead and strontium isotope signatures of the Island Intrusions and Bonanza Group volcanic rocks, between depleted mantle and crustal (possibly trench sediments) components. This is consistent with formation of these rocks in an island arc environment. Eocene Catface intrusions have relatively high 207pb/204pb indicating that crustal material was involved in their formation. There are two groups of plutons corresponding to an east belt and west belt classification. Galena from the Zeballos mining camp related to the Eocene Zeballos pluton indicates that the mineralization was derived from the pluton. Galena lead isotope data from Vancouver Island may be interpreted in a general way by comparison with data from deposits elsewhere of known age and origin. No single growth curve model can be applied. Lead isotope characteristics of Vancouver Island are clearly different from those of the North American craton, reflecting the oceanic affinities of this terrane. A new technique has been developed to compare 207pb/204pb ratios between samples with differing 206pb/204pb ratios. The procedure projects 207pb/204pb ratios along suitable isochrons until they intersect a reference value of 206pb/204pb. This technique can be used for interpreting lead isotope data from old terranes, in which lead and uranium may have undergone loss or gain, and if lead and uranium abundances have not been measured.

Full text
Abstract:
Twenty Douglas-fir plantations, ranging from 5 to 15 years old, were examined on the east side of Vancouver Island. In all areas studied, salal was the dominant ground cover, and was suspected of being a major competitor with trees for water and nutrients. In each plantation, part of the area has been burned and part was unburned. Stocking of planted Douglas-firs was found to be greater on the burned than on the unburned areas of 16 sites and height growth of planted Douglas-firs was greater on the burned than on the unburned areas of 18 sites. Some degree of nitrogen deficiency was inferred for 17 sites, but was not attributed to burning. Height and percent cover of salal was greater on unburned areas. Differences in height growth and percent cover of salal between burned and unburned areas were seen to be greatest where inferred burn severity was high. Browsing of Douglas-fir was more prevalent on burned areas but did not result in height growth being less than on adjacent unburned areas.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis is a study of attitudes towards the final disposition of archival records among representatives of five organizations in the Chinese community, Vancouver, British Columbia. The findings reveal three different types of attitude towards the final disposition of their archival records: "closed", "fairly open", and "open". Organizations with a political mission, a long history, and financially independent of government support tend to hold a "closed" attitude towards the final disposition of archival records; those with a project-oriented mission, existing for a limited time, and financially dependent of the government tend to hold an "open" attitude; those with missions such as cultural and social services tend to hold a "fairly open" attitude. The size of an organization does not influence the attitudes. The organizations open or fairly open towards access of their records possess higher potential for acquisition of ethnic archives by a public archival institution, whereas those closed to access of their records hold lower potential for acquisition. It is argued that these findings, though preliminary in nature, have significant importance for the archival community as regards the development of acquisition policy and strategy in keeping with the situation anddesires of records generators, in this case, ethnic groups. Its implications are especially significant in the Canadian setting, being a country widely acknowledged to have many ethnic groups.

Abstract:
'Multiculturalism' has become a commonplace in modern Canadian political parlance as the social geography of Canadian cities changes to reflect an increasingly more diverse immigrant profile. But as several critical interpretations of it contend, multiculturalism signifies more than pure diversity itself—multiculturalism is also an ideological framework that tries to contain and defuse political-economic crises among racialised immigrant communities. In this thesis I explore the circumstances surrounding two interventions by the city of Vancouver to police the production of 'ethnicised' commodities during the 1970s and 1980s. I argue this intervention was a problematic one which provoked tension between the state and a cadre of small capitalists, a struggle which was then promptly displaced onto the ideological field and mediated through the ideological framework of multiculturalism.

Abstract:
Historically and currently, the federal and provincial or territorial governments of Canada have neglected to ensure that Aboriginal children in foster care receive genuine, Aboriginal-centered cultural support. This research project aims to address the lack of available cultural programming for Aboriginal girls in foster care. Through interviews and a review of current literature, knowledge about cultural programming is examined and components of a successful mentorship model for Aboriginal girls in foster care are identified. Five semi-structured interviews were carried out and analyzed through grounded theory, complemented with autobiographical reflections. The study concludes that there is an evident need for cultural continuity programming for Aboriginal girls in foster care on southern Vancouver Island, British Columbia, and that a mentorship framework is the best applicable model.

Full text
Abstract:
Large, infrequent "episodic" sediment transfers are commonly considered differently from "normal-regime" sediment-transfer activity. For example, in the important hillslope-gully-stream sediment cascade pathway in coastal British Columbia, debris slides and debris torrents are considered as "episodic events". On the other hand, lower-magnitude hillslope to gully-channel sediment transfers and fluvial sediment tranSport within gully and stream channels are usually considered as "normal-regime" activity, represented by annual yields. However, the results of this study illustrate the highly episodic nature of normal-regime fine-sediment transfers, which are closely linked to hydrometeorological and sediment-supply conditions. The results indicate that qualitative modelling of fine-sediment transfer activity, at the synoptic or event scale, should be possible based upon hydrometeorological and sediment-supply information. From such a model ~ the elements of which are presented in the concluding chapter ~ fine-sediment transfer activity could be forecast based upon regional weather forecasts. The study was conducted in Russell Creek Basin, on northern Vancouver Island, British Columbia. Fine-sediment transfer activity was monitored at a nested hierarchy of sites representing fine-sediment transfers from unstable hillslopes to a gully channel, suspended sediment transport out of the unstable gully and a nearby stable gully, and suspended sediment transport in Russell Creek near the mouth. Russell Creek Basin is located within Tsitika Watershed, which is the site of a British Columbia Ministry of Forests study dedicated to determining relative fine-sediment contributions from natural and logging-related sediment sources. The results of the Russell Creek study indicate that an event-based sediment sampling program is desirable and that at least some automated sampling is required. Furthermore, development of a qualitative sediment-transfer activity forecast model would be useful in interpretation of sample data and would allow efforts to be concentrated during the periods of greatest sediment-transfer activity.

Clyde, Georgia Emily. "A fine-scale lidar-based habitat suitability mapping methodology for the marbled murrelet (Brachyramphus marmoratus) on Vancouver Island, British Columbia." Thesis, 2017. http://hdl.handle.net/1828/7923.

Full text
Abstract:
The marbled murrelet (Brachyramphus marmoratus) is a Threatened seabird with very particular nesting requirements. They choose to nest almost exclusively on mossy platforms, provided by large branches or deformities, in the upper canopies of coniferous old-growth trees located within 50 km of the ocean. Due primarily to a loss of this nesting habitat, populations in B.C. have seen significant decline over the past several decades. As such, reliable spatial habitat data are required to facilitate efficient management of the species and its remaining habitats. Current habitat mapping methodologies are limited by their qualitative assessment of habitat attributes and the large, stand-based spatial scale at which they classify and map habitat. This research aimed to address these limitations by utilizing light detection and ranging (lidar) technologies to develop an object-based habitat mapping methodology capable of quantitatively mapping habitat suitability at the scale of an individual tree on Northern Vancouver Island, British Columbia (B.C.). Using a balanced random forest (BRF) classification algorithm and in-field habitat suitability data derived from low-level aerial surveys (LLAS), a series of lidar-derived terrain and canopy descriptors were used to predict the habitat suitability (Rank 1: Very High Suitability – Rank 6: Nil Suitability) of lidar-derived individual tree objects. The classification model reported an overall classification accuracy of 71%, with Rank 1 – Rank 5 reporting individual class accuracies of 90%, 86%, 74%, 67%, and 98%, respectively. Evaluation of the object-based predictive habitat suitability maps provided evidence that this new methodology is capable of identifying and quantifying within-stand habitat variability at the scale of an individual tree. This improved quantification provides a superior level of habitat differentiation currently unattainable using existing habitat mapping methods. As the total amount of suitable nesting habitat in B.C. is expected to continue to decline, this improved quantification is a critical advancement for strategic managers, facilitating improved habitat and species management.

Chapter five rethinks the concept of responsibility in terms of respond-ability, which is conceived as attunement. Two approaches of the practice of harm reduction—a key element in the anti-drug war movement—are considered to show that while most harm reduction is still practiced with the assumption of a metaphysical humanist subject, a subject burdened by personal responsibility, a politics of world-building is underway in Vancouver, Canada, that begins with the demands of an unbearable world and attempts to build a new world attuned with itself. Attunement, then, like an ethics of dwelling would be a key concept in a politics that begins with a world rather than an a priori subject.

It was just past noon on May 29, 1990, and the three British Columbian loggers had wandered into a twenty-five-acre grove of inconceivably large trees hidden on the northern bank of Vancouver Island’s White River. Every major species of Northwest conifer was here—western red cedar, spruce, and Douglas fir—and most were so tall that their tops disappeared into the hanging mists above, making this entire place feel as if it belonged as much to the heavens as it did the Earth. The tallest trees gave off a sweet scent and were covered in thick, almost ironlike bark speckled with the bluish-green hues of forest lichens, which Luoma, Zapp, and Morrison knew were all signs of exceptional age. The grove astounded in other ways, as well. Broad-leafed ferns sprung from buckled red clumps of dirt, and bright-green sheets of moss hung from the twisted branches of understory growth. A handful of much-older trees that’d fallen decades, if not centuries ago, slowly disintegrated into the soil, and younger trees sprouted from their decaying carcasses, each one a small reminder that in the forest, the lines demarcating life and death are not starkly drawn. Luoma, Zapp, and Morrison were used to dramatic landscapes. Together, they had more than seventy-five years’ experience working in the woods. They’d spent their lives among some of the tallest trees and densest forests found anywhere in the Northern Hemisphere. Still, nothing quite compared to what they were looking at now. The largest conifers on the northern coast of Vancouver Island typically grow to a height of about 150 feet, with an occasional specimen reaching 200 feet. Many trees in this grove stretched more than 250 feet into the air, and the largest would later be measured at more than 285 feet tall....

Abstract Try to imagine a lone Indian holy man disembarking in Vancouver in July 1893 after a long voyage from India by way of Ceylon, Malaya, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Japan. He is dressed in the robes of a monk, but he is dragging with him the steamer trunks and wardrobe of a modern tourist. Hardly has he come ashore than he boards a train for Chicago. The journey will take five days. He has already been traveling for a solid month and has been overwhelmed by the sight of modern battleships in Penang, pigtailed children and fabulous Buddha-images in China, picturesque gardens and bustling factories in Japan. Now he gazes out at the towering mountains of western North America and watches as they gradually give way to cool green forests, expansive prairies, and sprawling farms.

Abstract:
Abstract Chinese gangs have a reputation for violence (Daly, 1983; Dannen, 1992). Since the mid-1970s, violence has often erupted in the Chinese communities in North America. In 1977, for instance, five people were killed and eleven were wounded when three assailants opened fire on customers inside a Chinese restaurant in San Francisco’s Chinatown (Ludlow, 1987). In 1982, masked gunmen shot dead three young Chinese and seriously wounded seven others in a bar in New York City’s Chinatown (Blumenthal, 1982). Similar incidents have occurred in Seattle (Em ery, 1990), Boston (Butterfield, 1991), Vancouver (Gould, 1988; Dubro, 1992), and Toronto (Kessel and Hum, 1991; Lavigne, 1991; Moloney, 1991). Most of these incidents were reported to be related to Chinese gangs, and in some, innocent bystanders were wounded or killed. Law enforcement authorities believe that the emergence of Vietnamese and Fujianese gangs, drastic shifts in political alliances among Chinese community organizations, rapid but destabilizing economic expansion in Chinese communities, and the involvement of Chinese gangs in heroin trafficking and in the smuggling of aliens have created an escalation in gang violence over the past few years (U.S. Senate, 1992).

<em>Abstract</em>.—There are 11 lamprey species in Canada: Vancouver lamprey <em>Entosphenus macrostomus</em> (formerly <em>Lampetra macrostoma</em>), Pacific lamprey <em>Entosphenus tridentatus</em> (formerly <em>Lampetra tridentata</em>), chestnut lamprey <em>Ichthyomyzon castaneus</em>, northern brook lamprey <em>Ichthyomyzon fossor</em>, silver lamprey <em>Ichthtyomyzon unicuspis</em>, river lamprey <em>Lampetra ayresii</em>, western brook lamprey <em>Lampetra richardsoni</em>, Alaskan brook lamprey <em>Lethenteron alaskense</em>, American brook lamprey <em>Lethenteron appendix</em> (formerly <em>Lampetra appendix</em>), Arctic lamprey <em>Lethenteron camtschaticum</em> (formerly <em>Lampetra camtschatica</em>), and sea lamprey <em>Petromyzon marinus</em>. <em>Entosphenus</em> and <em>Lethenteron</em> were previously synonymized with <em>Lampetra</em>, but Nelson (2006) recognized these as three distinct genera. Conservation status has been assessed in only five species and in two of these (western brook lamprey and chestnut lamprey), only for portions of their Canadian population. The 2007 Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada list indicates that the enigmatic population of western brook lamprey in Morrison Creek, British Columbia, is endangered; the Vancouver lamprey in British Columbia is threatened; the chestnut lamprey in Saskatchewan and Manitoba is special concern; the northern brook lamprey in Manitoba, Ontario, and Quebec is of special concern in the latter two provinces and data deficient in the former; and the Alaskan brook lamprey in the Northwest Territories is data deficient. The threats to the four species at risk were collectively related to habitat degradation and loss, sensitivity to a catastrophic event, and sensitivity to lampricide used to control the invasive sea lamprey in the Great Lakes basin. Despite much lamprey work being conducted in the past decade, there still remain a number of knowledge gaps. These gaps include unequivocal evidence as to whether parasitic and nonparasitic members of a paired species should be considered distinct species and information on the distribution and population sizes and trends of the native lamprey species.

Abstract:
This work is devoted to the creation of a probabilistic criterion for forest fire danger to take into account the various causes of anthropogenic load that lead to forest fires. Typical forested areas of the boreal zone are considered: Tomsk region (Russian Federation) and Vancouver Island (Canada). In addition, a description is given of a probabilistic criterion that takes into account the occurrence of a forest fire as a result of deliberate arson. The chapter presents the results of scenario modeling of forest fire danger. It is concluded that it is possible to modernize existing forest fire danger prediction systems in the USA, Canada, Southern Europe, Australia, and the Russian Federation.

Abstract:
When we arrived in Vancouver at the start of our vacation, the tabloid headline at the newspaper stand caught our attention. “World’s Bravest Mom,” it shrieked. We stopped to read. The story was simple; it needed no journalistic embellishment. Dusk, August 19, 1996. Mrs. Cindy Parolin is horseback riding with her four children in Tulameen, in southern British Columbia’s Okanagan region. Without warning, a cougar springs out of the vegetation, hurtling at the neck of one of the horses. In the confusion, Steven Parolin, age six, falls off his horse and is seized by the cougar. Mrs. Parolin, armed only with a riding crop, jumps off her horse and challenges the cougar, which drops the bleeding child and springs at her. Ordering her other children to take their wounded brother and go for help, Mrs. Parolin confronts the cougar alone. By the time rescuers reach her an hour later, she is dying. The cat, shot soon afterward, was a small one, little more than sixty pounds. Adult male cougars can weigh as much as 200 pounds, we learn the next day from the BC Environment’s pamphlet entitled “Safety Guide to Cougars.” We are on our way to Garibaldi Provincial Park, where we plan to do some hiking, and have stopped in the park head-quarters for information. “Most British Columbians live all their lives without a glimpse of a cougar, much less a confrontation with one,” says the pamphlet, noting that five people have been killed by cougars in British Columbia in the past hundred years. (Actually, the number is now higher; cougar attacks have become increasingly common in the western United States and Canada in recent years.) “Seeing a cougar should be an exciting and rewarding experience, with both you and the cougar coming away unharmed.”However, the pamphlet notes, cougars seem to be attracted to children as prey, possibly because of “their high-pitched voices, small size, and erratic movements.” When hiking, “make enough noise to prevent surprising a cougar . . . carry a sturdy walking stick to be used as a weapon if necessary,” and “keep children close-at-hand and under control.”

Abstract:
British Columbia Ferry Services Inc. operates five "C" class passenger-car ferries that were delivered in 1976 (3 ships) and 1981 (2 ships). The vessels have a service speed of 19.0 knots, are 457 ft. long, and have a gross tonnage of 6,550 tons. They have a capacity of about 360 cars and 1,500 passengers. Their route varies from Vancouver-Vancouver Island-Sunshine Coast, with up to 9 round trips per day. The vessels have a double-ended single screw propeller configuration. Each of the controllable pitch propellers are driven by one or two diesel engines rated at 5,930 HP, through single reduction gearboxes. The two gearboxes are connected via quill shafts that are concentric with the pinion shafts. The pinion shafts are engaged via clutches at the end of each of the quill shafts. This arrangement enables one or both of the diesel engines to drive either one or both of the propellers. In 1998 a catastrophic failure occurred to the bull wheel on one vessel. The bull gear teeth broke off taking out both pinions. In 1999 the bull gear on another vessel was replaced as a result of fractured gear teeth, found during an inspection. In addition, a number of failures have occurred to both the lineshaft and pinion shaft bearings. An investigation was conducted to determine the source of the failures and the most prudent and economical course of action. To accomplish these objectives a review of the system design and maintenance/failure history was conducted, as well as theoretical modeling and alignment and vibration measurements. It was found that the failures occurred due to misalignment. A realignment program has been undertaken, with the first realignment completed in February 2002. This paper describes the failure investigation and the results of the realignment work conducted.

Full text
Abstract:
Southwest British Columbia has some of the highest seismic hazard in Canada and is home to facilities owned by the Department of National Defence which support operations on the west coast of Canada. The potential impact of seismic hazards on these government facilities are investigated here. The hazard is from three primary sources: subduction interface, crustal and in-slab earthquakes. NRCan, in consultation with DRDC have produced representative earthquake scenarios for each of these sources. The subduction scenario we constructed was an M8.9 earthquake extending along the entire Cascadia Subduction Zone from 4 to 18 km depth. We used an M6.8 earthquake occurring along a 30 km fault at between 52 and 60 km depth below Boundary Bay to represent in-slab events. The final scenario, representing a crustal source, was an M6.4 along the central 47 km of the Leech River Valley-Devil's Mountain Fault system. We found that the Cascadia subduction scenario dominated the shaking hazard over much of the study region. Meanwhile, the in-slab and crustal scenarios have higher but more localized hazards in Vancouver and Victoria. In addition to the primary ground motion hazard, we also examined secondary seismic hazards: secondary amplification effects, landslides, liquefaction, surface ruptures, tsunami, flooding, fire, and aftershocks. Each of the secondary hazards had varying impacts depending on the scenario and locations within the region.

Full text
Abstract:
Seton Lake is a freshwater fiord located in southwestern British Columbia, roughly 4 km west of Lillooet and 250 km north-northeast of Vancouver. Located in the Coast Mountains, it is an alpine lake about 22-km long and roughly 1-1.5 km wide. It is separated from nearby Anderson Lake, located to the west, by a large pre-historic rock avalanche deposit at Seton Portage. The lake stands at about 243 m above sea level and is up to about 150 m deep (BC gov., 1953). Water level is controlled by a hydroelectric dam (i.e., Seton dam) located at the eastern end of the lake. Here, the lake drains east into Seton Canal, a 5 km diversion of the flow of the Seton River, which begins at the Seton dam. The Seton Canal pushes water to the Seton Powerhouse, a hydroelectric generating station at the Fraser River, just south of the community of Sekw'el'was and confluence of the Seton River, which drains into the Fraser River at Lillooet. Seton Portage, Shalatlh, South Shalatlh, Tsal'alh (Shalath), Sekw'el'was (Cayoosh Creek), and T'it'q'et (Lillooet) are communities that surround the lake. Surrounded by mountainous terrain, the lake is flanked at mid-slope by glacial and colluvial sediments deposited during the last glacial and deglacial periods (Clague, 1989; Jakob, 2018). The bedrock consists mainly of mafic to ultramafic volcanic rocks with minor carbonate and argillite from the Carboniferous to Middle Jurassic periods (Journeay and Monger, 1994). As part of the Public Safety Geoscience Program at the Geological Survey of Canada (Natural Resources Canada), our goal is to provide baseline geoscience information to nearby communities, stakeholders and decision-makers. Our objective was to see what kind of sediments were deposited and specifically if we could identify underwater landslide deposits. Thus, we surveyed the lake using a Pinger SBP sub bottom profiler made by Knudsen Engineering Ltd., with dual 3.5 / 200 kHz transducers mounted to a small boat (see photo). This instrument transmits sound energy down through the water column that reflects off the lake bottom surface and underlying sediment layers. At the lake surface, the reflected sound energy is received by the profiler, recorded on a laptop computer, and integrated with GPS data. These data are processed to generate a two-dimensional image (or profile) showing the character of the lake bottom and underlying sediments along the route that the boat passed over. Our survey in 2022 recorded 98 profiles along Seton Lake. The red transect lines show the locations of the 20 profiles displayed on the poster. The types of sediments observed are mostly fine-grained glaciolacustrine sediments that are horizontally bedded with a subtle transition between glaciolacustrine to lacustrine (e.g., profiles A-A'; C-C'; F-F'; S-S'). Profile S-S' displays this transition zone. The glaciolacustrine sediments probably were deposited as the Cordilleran Ice Sheet retreated from the local area (~13,000-11,000 years ago; Clague, 2017) and the lacustrine sediments, after the ice receded to present-day conditions. Some of the parallel reflections are interrupted, suggesting abrupt sedimentation by deposits that are not horizontally bedded; these are interpreted as landslide deposits (see pink or blue deposits on profiles). The deposits that show disturbance in the sedimentation found within the horizontal beds are thought to be older landslides (e.g., blue arrows/deposits in profiles C-C'; E-E'; F-F'; G-G'; I-I'; J-J'; K-K'; N-N'; P-P'; Q-Q'; R-R'; T-T'; U-U'), but the ones that are found on top of the horizontally laminated sediments (red arrows/pink deposits), and close to the lake wall, are interpreted to be younger (e.g., profiles B-B'; C-C'; H-H'; K-K'; M-M'; O-O'; P-P'; Q-Q'). At the fan delta just west of Seton dam, where there was no acoustic signal penetration, it is interpreted that the delta failed and brought down coarser deposits at the bottom of the lake (e.g., profiles H-H'; M-M'; and perhaps K-K'). However, these could be glacial deposits, bedrock, or other coarser deposits. Some of the deposits that reflect poor penetration of the acoustic signal, below the glaciolacustrine sediments, could represent glacial deposits, old landslide deposits, or perhaps the presence of gas (orange arrows; e.g, B-B'; D-D'; J-J'; O-O', T-T'). The preliminary results from sub bottom profiling reveal that there are underwater landslides deposits of widely varying ages buried in the bottom of the lake. However, the exact timing of these is not known. Hence our preliminary survey gives an overview of the distribution of landslides where there seems to be a larger number of landslides recorded in the narrower eastern portion of the lake.
