The call to the province for a Management Plan began anew in 2010 in response to a massive open-pit gravel mine proposed for McNab Creek [...] in the heart of Howe Sound, which would obliterate the estuary of this salmon-bearing stream. Since that time, the Box Canyon IPP (Independent Power Project) in McNab Valley has been approved, as have two others near Woodfibre. The province has advertised the tendering of two woodlots on Gambier Island that could see up to one quarter of Gambier Island clear cut. Fortis BC announced, and then hastily commenced an environmental assessment process for twinning 52 kilometres of 20” gas pipeline through the Coquitlam and Squamish watersheds and a new gas compressor station right in the town of Squamish.
