  • DRAFT Chief and Council Briefing Note DATE: MAY 8, 2024 SUBJECT: COMMENTS ON IMPACT ASSESSMENT AGENCY CANADA’S ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT REPORT FOR THE LMOC-LSMOC PROJECT ASSESSMENT REPORT EXCERPT Executive Summary In reviewing the potential environmental effects of the Project, the Agency also considered factors such as effects of potential accidents and malfunctions, extreme and periodic weather events, and cumulative effects in conjunction with other past, present, and reasonably foreseeable projects or physical activities. FISHER RIVER CREE NATION COMMENTS The cumulative effects assessments (CEA) are inadequate as noted by Fisher River Cree Nation (FRCN) numerous times. It is clear from the definition in the act and EIS guidelines that for any Valued Component (VC) that is assessed, the CEA must consider the past present and reasonably foreseeable future effects of other projects and activities regardless of the degree of potential effects of the Project alone. This has not been done by the Proponent. FRCN recommends that a condition of the federal authorization include a requirement for the Proponent to do a proper cumulative effects assessment in consultation with Chief and Council of FRCN. ASSESSMENT REPORT EXCERPT The Agency is of the view that, after taking into account the implementation of the key mitigation measures identified in this draft EA Report in relation to section 5 of CEAA 2012, the Project is likely to cause direct and cumulative significant adverse environmental effects on: • Indigenous peoples’ current use of lands and resources for traditional purposes, including from loss or alteration of access, effects to the availability ...

  • Chief and Council Submission DATE: MAY 8, 2024 SUBJECT: COMMENTS ON IAAC’S ENVIRONMENT ACT AUTHORIZATION CONDITIONS Chief and Council of the Fisher River Cree Nation are pleased to submit comments on the Impact Assessment Agency of Canada’s (the Agency’s) draft report of proposed conditions of federal environmental authorization. For ease of reference, FRCN has copied relevant sections of the Agency’s report and provided comments after each. EA AUTHORIZATION CONDITIONS – SECTIONS FROM REPORT 1 DEFINITIONS 1.24 Indigenous groups means …… 1.35 Proponent means Manitoba Transportation and Infrastructure and its successors or assigns. 1.43 Wetland means land that is saturated with water long enough to promote wetland or aquatic processes as indicated by poorly drained soils, hydrophytic vegetation and various kinds of biological activity which are adapted to a wet environment and as further defined in the Canadian Wetland Classification System. FISHER RIVER CREE NATION COMMENTS: Definition of Indigenous groups: FRCN would prefer “Indigenous nations” in place of “Indigenous groups”. Groups may refer to an ad hoc organization or group comprised of more than 50% Indigenous people. Furthermore, an Indigenous Nation has different rights and interests than those of a “group”. Definition of Proponent: The conditions in this document apply to the proponent i.e. Manitoba Transportation and Infrastructure (MTI). In this project, MTI is the Proponent but also an arm of government or the Crown. This should be explained in the preamble and made clear that the Proponent is also representing the Crown, and must therefore uphold the Honour of the Crown in its ...

These changes are requested with the intention of protecting our rights, interests, and the environment to the best of our ability; however, we strongly oppose the Project as it poses a severe risk to our rights, interests, environment, and the future of our communities. Review of draft Conditions document We have implemented a standardized means of review and revision. Suggested text deletions are identified using a strikethrough (strikethrough), and suggested textual additions are bolded (bolded). Item Sect., Pg. Topic Comment/ Issue Requested Change or Addition 1 1 2 General The temporal scope used in the EA focusses only on the construction period, not the long-term operation of the channels that will never be abandoned and restored to their original condition (IAAC states that the Project will operate “in perpetuity” on page 10). The IRTC rejects this approach to both temporal and spatial scope. As a result of the Project operating “in perpetuity”, all monitoring, reporting, follow-up, adaptive management, and compliance enforcement initiatives and conditions must be extended for the life of the Project (in perpetuity). This includes the explicit provision of funding of Indigenous programs, including monitoring and guardianship initiatives, for the entire life of the Project (in perpetuity). Please adjust language in all relevant conditions to reflect this ...

The contents of this document are entirely without prejudice to our position that this project must not be allowed to proceed. # Section, page(s) Comment/ Issue Requested Change or Addition 1 General IAAC is maintaining the role of the EAC as the primary mechanism for Indigenous engagement if the Project is approved, but LSFN has repeatedly stated that the EAC as described is an unacceptable avenue for Project engagement activities. While the stated mitigations are an improvement on the structure of the EAC, there is so much bad history and distrust that the EAC itself needs to be dropped and a new structure needs to be developed. The issues with the EAC, which have been repeatedly shared with the Proponent across numerous reviews and letters, are myriad, and include but are not limited to the following: • The EAC is embedded with top-down processes, controlled by the Proponent and which allows for no meaningful decision- making on the part of Indigenous committee members • The terms of the EAC do not allow member Nations to contract their own outside consultants to assist in the review of ...

  • DRAFT EA REPORT REVIEW COMMENTS_NHCN_MAY 2024 Comments on the Draft EA Report for the LMLSMOC Project Norway House Cree Nation May 2024 The Norway House Cree Nation technical advisory team has done a preliminary review of the draft EA Report submitted by the Impact Assessment Agency of Canada for the proposed Lake Manitoba and Lake St Martin Outlet Channels Project (Project). The draft EA Report outlines a wide range of concerns that have been expressed and explored by Indigenous Nations, other communities, and federal government agencies over the likely and potential impacts that would be created by this massive landscape altering construction proposal. NHCN has concluded that there is a need for more clarification on some issues for the Minister’s benefit in order that he can fully understand the long-term consequences of his decision. In this set of comments, we will share perspectives about some of the broad issues with the federal environmental assessment process followed by comments and recommendations on sections of the draft EA Report prepared by IAAC. Some of the comments are a repetitive as they refer to specific passages of text in the EA Report which address some overlapping topics. General Comments Need for and Alternatives to the Project Given the passage of time since CEAA 2012 was replaced, we would like to see some more detail in the EA Report explaining the implications of this Project being assessed under CEAA 2012 and discussion of the Agency’s perspective on this. As we understand it, the requirement to consider the need for and alternatives to the proposed Project was reduced in CEAA 2012 compared to previous federal EA legislation and compared to the ...

This memo is the cover sheet for the notes about IAAC’s final draft report from the in- community meeting in Poplar River First Nation on May 6, 2024. 1) For those interested in PRFN contributions and participation to this EIS review you can find our comments on the original EIS, our comments on the proponent’s answer to Information Requests about the project from IAAC, and other correspondence in the IAAC public registry between 2018 and 2024. 2) We would suggest reading the concerns from PRFN at the front of our comments on the Round Two Information Request answers from MTI. Those concerns are as valid and important now as then. 3) IAAC identified additional potentially affected First Nations for the list of participants early in the Channel project reviews. We feel these were important decisions. All the First Nation and Indigenous participants – with their consultants and experts – have done important work during this lengthy set of reviews. The scope and number of potential impacts increased while the potential range of those impacts also increased with these First Nations also participating. 4) Round Three Information Requests from IAAC to MTI were important repeat attempts to get answers to questions about First Nation and Indigenous communities, engagement with communities, and ...

I attended the Manitoba Transportation and Infrastructure (MTI) Open Houses held in Winnipeg before the MTI Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) was filed with IAAC, under CEAA. Manitoba Wildlands is not a funded participant. The Open Houses convinced me of a few things: • The technical/scientific expertise to file the EIS was not present in the room. • The MTI staff and consultants did not appear to be aware of recent EIS for other public works in Manitoba, which could assist them in the task ahead. • They also did not seem to know anything about CEAA or IAAC. • The information boards around the room looked nice but broadcast that MTI did not think any significant impacts were likely from the project, and that their very small project area was all that was needed, all that would be impacted. It is mostly the construction area. • They had left out Lake Winnipeg, the Emergency Outlet Channels, First Nations, and protected areas. • We were invited to correct the boards and write on them. However, nothing ...

  • Hello Tanishka, Please see the following response to the draft Environmental Assessment (EA) Report and potential conditions for the Lake Manitoba and Lake St. Martin Outlet Channels Project, on behalf of York Factory First Nation: York Factory First Nation (YFFN) remains strongly opposed to the Project, and urges the Minister to issue a Decision Statement that would prohibit the Project from proceeding. York Factory First Nation agrees with the Agency’s assessment that “the Project is likely to cause direct and cumulative significant adverse environmental effects on the current use of lands and resources for traditional purposes by Indigenous peoples; to physical and cultural heritage; and to structures, sites, and things of historical, archaeological, paleontological, or architectural significance despite the implementation of mitigation, monitoring and follow-up measures” and believe the Proponent has not provided certainty in their assessment of the Project’s potential effects to surface water, groundwater, wetlands, vegetation, and wildlife habitat. Should the Minister allow the project to proceed with conditions, YFFN asserts that several of the proposed conditions should be strengthened: • Proposed Condition 3.19 would require the Proponent to conduct monitoring surface water and effects on fish and fish habitat in locations including Split Lake. However, Condition 3.19.1 specifies that monitoring for surface water quality is only required “at a minimum two years post commissioning” as well as “to capture seasonal variability and effects after a minimum number of outlet channel operations and a range of magnitudes of floods, including any new record floods”; YFFN requests: a) that ...

ISC agrees with the Agency’s conclusions pertaining to direct and cumulative significant adverse environmental effects on Indigenous peoples’ current use of lands and resources for traditional purposes; Indigenous peoples’ physical and cultural heritage; and Indigenous peoples’ sites or things of historical, archaeological, paleontological, or architectural significance. In its mandated role to support the implementation of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act, ISC takes particular note of the fact that numerous Indigenous groups have stated strong opposition to this project. ISC provides the following comments on the Draft Report: 1. A key consideration is that while the Project is designed to manage water levels and prevent flooding of communities in the Interlake region of Manitoba, several of the Indigenous groups living in this area (the intended beneficiaries of the project) have ...

We have reviewed the Draft Environmental Assessment as requested, and discussed it with the fishers and communities that we serve. For the information of the IAAC, we have been unable to find any support for the proposed Project among Fishers, Knowledge Keepers, Elders Chiefs, Counsellors and citizen Right-holders. All say NO to the Proposed project. Here are specific key points from Keewatinook Fishers of Lake Winnipeg review of the Environmental Assessment Report Documents: 1. Section 35 Rights are referenced throughout IAAC document, and we are located in Manitoba under the NRTA in a Province that has not Affirmed our Section 35 Treaty Rights and Aboriginal Title Rights. We call upon the Minister to ensure that the Province affirms our Section 35 Treaty Rights and Aboriginal Title Rights as part of the Project Consultation. 2. Any decision by the Minister or Governor in Council regarding the Project must be compliant to Canada’s United Nations Declaration Act (UNDA) 2021. There is no consideration or ...

Their responses are included throughout this report. MCN has been heavily involved in IAAC process throughout the past five years: • MCN Council, staff, fishers and consulting support team have attended every Technical Advisory Group (TAG) meeting that has been held since summer of 2019. • MCN has responded to the initial Environmental Assessment report submitted by Manitoba Infrastructure (MI or the Proponent). • MCN has responded to the subsequent three rounds of Information Request responses from MI. • MCN intentionally chose not to respond to the mitigation measured proposed by MI as we strongly believe that the science and assessment done to date regarding these mitigation strategies was faulty and incomplete. We do not believe you can create effective mitigation measures on a project that is not sound. • Internally MCN has met with the fisher community and gained their expertise and experience of the previous 2011 and 2014 temporary channels. This knowledge has been integrated into all our responses. • MCN attended the one visit by MI to MCN in late summer of 2022. This was a short few hours, most of which included a presentation that did not honestly represent the ...

Health Canada (HC) is participating in the environmental assessment review of Manitoba Transportation and Infrastructure’s (Proponent) Lake Manitoba & Lake St. Martin Outlet Channels Project as a Federal Authority under the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act, 2012. As requested, our department reviewed the characterization of potential environmental effects, key mitigation measures, monitoring, and follow-up programs, as well as those comments and views attributed to Health Canada, which in its current draft is accurately reflected in both documents with the exception of potential conditions 6.2 & 6.5.3. With regard to sections 6.2 & 6.5.3 of the Draft Potential Federal Conditions, HC noted that management and monitoring for water discharges into outside drains was limited to the Lake St Martin Outlet Channel, as identified in Figure 3C-22 of the May 2023 Update to the ...

BRFN has repeatedly raised concerns that the Project will have serious, long-term consequences on our rights, culture, and way of life. Despite our requests, the Impact Assessment Agency of Canada (the “Agency”) has yet to take the steps necessary to fully understand how the Project will affect our Treaty rights and way of life. Manitoba Transportation and Infrastructure (“MTI”) has similarly failed to meaningfully consider or address our concerns. As a result of the shortcomings in the consultation and engagement process, the draft Report cannot be relied on as a comprehensive or accurate assessment of the nature or scope of the impacts of the Project on BRFN’s rights and territory. Background BRFN is a self-governing Anishinaabe community located on the eastern shores of Lake Winnipeg in central Manitoba. We hold and exercise inherent and constitutionally protected rights, including rights guaranteed under Treaty 5. We rely on continued access to all lands and waters in the vicinity of Lake Winnipeg to exercise our rights. Preservation of our reserves and off-reserve territory is necessary to ensure our ...

Instead, the report recommends mitigation measures, which are not mitigation measures but adaptation measures to significant adverse effects. Despite this being the United Nations decade of Ecological Restoration more natural alternative options for flood mitigation, such as wetland restoration, were not researched. This narrow engineering view of alternatives is problematic and will create future problems as water fluctuates ...

ECCC recommends this addition to the Agency Analysis and/or key mitigation measures, given that the Agency recognizes that “construction and operation activities may result in adverse effects to the health of Indigenous peoples through changes to air quality” in the draft EA report (section 7.5.1.3), In response to IAAC-01 (CIAR 147), the Proponent stated that they will adopt Tier 4 compliant vehicles where possible. ECCC’s final views submission (CIAR 226) stated that if Project construction does not meet Tier 4 emission standards, there may be potential residual effects to air quality due to higher NOx emissions.
