Clearwater Peat Harvesting Project Biophysical Report and Peat Development and Operations Plan and Identification of Impacts This letter is sent on behalf of O’Chiese First Nation’s Chief and Council. The Chief and Council of O’Chiese First Nation have the elected authority and responsibility to protect the Inherent and Treaty rights of O’Chiese First Nation. The Inherent and Treaty rights of O’Chiese First Nation are set out in Treaty 6 and protected by Section 35, Constitution Act, 1982. O’Chiese First Nation is bound by Kaa-Ke-Chi-Ko-Moo-Nan, O’Chiese First Nation’s Great Binding Law (“Natural Laws”). As such, O’Chiese First Nation operates under its own distinct set of legal principles and laws that have been in place since time immemorial, which we understand and expect are protected by Treaty 6 and Section 35 of the Constitution Act, 1982. Our Natural Laws are the foundation for O’Chiese First Nation Peoples. O’Chiese First Nation submits this letter to Premier Tech Horticulture Ltd. (“Premier Tech”) regarding its intent to construct and operate the Clearwater Peat Harvesting Project (the “Project).1 O’Chiese First Nation has sought to engage in good faith with Premier Tech and has expressed clear concern for the proposed Project impacts, as well as concern for the ...

  • Classification: Protected A Responses to Questions in Appendix A of O’Chiese (“OCFN”) Letter of November 4, 2022 # Report/Section Excerpt OCFN Comment Premier Tech’s Response 1 1.0 Introduction (PDF p. 9) Premier Tech Horticulture (Premier Tech) commissioned Golder Associates Ltd. (Golder) to respond to Premier Tech’s Supplemental Information Requests (SIRs) received from Alberta Environment and Parks (AEP) on May 28, 2019 and September 15, 2021. Ultimately this report will support the Public Lands Act and Water Act Approval required to construct and operation the Project, associated with AEP file numbers SML090026 WA00387959. The original Development Plan and surface material lease (SML) application (Premier Tech 2010) included six harvest sections. The Project has since been updated to be developed in two phases. This Project is located well within O’Chiese First Nation’s Consultation Area where O’Chiese First Nation has Inherent and Treaty rights, and Natural Resource Transfer Agreement, 1930 (“NRTA”) rights. O’Chiese First Nation has two Indian Reserves (“IRs”) 203 and 203A set aside under the terms of Treaty 6. IR 203 is located approximately 60 km from the Project and IR203A is located approximately 10 km from the Project. It is deeply concerning that O’Chiese First Nation was not made aware of the Project when it was first initiated in 2010, nor was O’Chiese First Nation involved at any stage, including in the development of the Biophysical Report, in 2017. In our meeting with Premier Tech in August 29, 2022 we were given the impression that any work conducted prior to Alberta’s release of its Peat Harvesting Policy in 2016 was not relevant to ...

Box 2127 Rocky Mountain House, Alberta T4T 1P2 Dear Mr. Scott, Re: FNC 202108622 Response to O’Chiese First Nation November 4th, 2022 letter. We thank O’Chiese First Nation (“OCFN”) for its correspondence of November 4, 2022, and comments concerning the Clearwater Peat Harvesting Project (the “Project”). Premier Tech Horticulture Ltd. (“Premier Tech”) recognizes that OCFN holds Treaty rights to hunt, fish, trap for food and gather for traditional uses and that these rights are protected by Section 35 of the Constitution Act, 1982 (“Treaty Rights”). We are committed to working with OCFN to gather more details on how the Project may impact your Treaty Rights and to discussing a path forward consistent with the guidelines and requirements set by the Government of Alberta’s Guidelines on Consultation with First Nations on Land and Natural Resource Management (2014) (“Alberta’s Guidelines”). Earlier last year, Premier Tech was, for the first time, directed by the provincial Crown, through the Aboriginal Consultation Office (“ACO”) to consult with OCFN on the proposed Project. Thereafter, on July 5th, 2022, we provided OCFN with an information package that included information detailing the nature of the Project and identifying potential temporary impacts to hunting and gathering. Consistent with the Alberta’s Guidelines, our initial letter also requested that OCFN identify site-specific concerns about how the Project may adversely impact OCFN’s Treaty Rights and provide the location of where these Treaty Rights are exercised with reference to the Project footprint. The ...

Has your department or agency considered whether it has an interest in the Project; exercised a power or performed a duty or function under any Act of Parliament in relation to the Project; or taken any course of action (including provision of financial assistance) that would allow the Project to proceed in whole or in part? Specify as appropriate. Yes, in 2017 Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) reviewed the project (DFO File No. 17-HCAA- 00453) and at the time determined that the project would not require regulatory review. The decision provided by DFO in 2017 does not represent a power, duty, or function under any Act of Parliament; the decision at the time was considered in relation to Serious Harm impacts to fish that are part of a commercial, recreational or Aboriginal fishery, as was required by the previous Fisheries Act (2013 - 2019). Given that the Fisheries Act was amended in 2019, DFO recommends that the Project be reviewed under the current provisions and policies of the amended Fisheries Act to ensure compliance. 2. Is it probable that your department or agency may be required to exercise a power or perform a duty or function related to the Project to enable it to proceed?
