Old Growth Management Areas Mitigation and Replacement Plan
Trans Mountain must file with the NEB for approval,
at least 3 months prior to
commencing construction within old growth management areas
, an Old Growth
Management Areas Mitigation and Replacement Plan for these areas that are
potentially affected directly or indirectly by the Project during construction or
operations, that includes:
a) avoidance and mitigation measures to be implemented during construction and
operations, with rationales and unambiguous criteria explaining under what
circumstances each measure will be applied, and measurable goals against
which the success of each measure will be evaluated;
b) a description of how the avoidance, mitigation, and offset hierarchy was
considered in developing the plan, with rationales for progressing from
avoidance to mitigation to offsets;
c) details on post-construction monitoring, including corrective actions that might
be necessary and the circumstances under which each such action would be
taken;
d) the expected residual effects (including quantification) on old growth
management areas, including a discussion of the potential for time lags between
when Project effects occur and when mitigation measures would become fully
functional;
e) replacement or other offset measures that will be implemented to compensate
for residual effects with the aim of no-net-loss to old growth forests within old
growth management areas overall, including:
i)
discussion of the appropriateness of compensation for the old growth
management area, taking its specific features into account, and of any potential
limitations of the effectiveness of such replacement or offset measures;
ii)
an explanation with rationales on the amount and type of replacements or
other offsets required;
iii)
a timeline for their implementation;
iv)
the selection of compensation sites;
v)
identification of the parties involved in planning and implementation and their
respective roles and responsibilities, and
vi)
a description of the methods and schedule for monitoring and reporting to
demonstrate compensation success;
f) a summary of its consultations with Appropriate Government Authorities and
any potentially affected Aboriginal groups. In its summary, Trans Mountain
must provide a description and justification for how Trans Mountain has
incorporated the results of its consultation, including any recommendations
from those consulted, into the plan; and
g) confirmation that Trans Mountain will update the relevant Environmental
Protection Plan(s) to include any relevant information from the Old Growth
Management Areas Mitigation and Replacement Plan.
