Abstract:
Although the Department of Water Affairs and Forestry has committed itself to public participation with regard to water quality management in South Africa, no formal structure exists as yet within which this can take place. The Jukskei River Water Quality Steering Committee, which consists of representatives of various government departments, the Provincial Government, local authorities as well as non-government organisations and community-based organisations, therefore functions without a legal framework and without funds of its own. Nonetheless, the committee has been highly successful in co

Abstract:
Integrated water resources management is advancing in Brazil as decentralized and participatory governance gains more prominence. However, local actions need to be better understood since several public policies are effectively implemented at this level. The present article aims to present the current debate about the local dimension in water resources governance. The paper analyzes empirical cases of water resources management in semi-arid Brazil, based on the performance of inter-municipal consortia and São Francisco’s River Basin Committee.

&lt;em&gt;Abstract&lt;/em&gt;.—Effective means to directly engage the public in determining reservoir fishery management objectives and strategies is a common challenge to managers. This paper examines the experiences and lessons acquired from three separate situations in which citizen advisory committees were used to assist fishery management biologists in resolving conflicts and setting management objectives for three lakes in Arkansas. Benefits included a better understanding on both the part of anglers and agency biologists of their respective motivations and preferences, a greater sense of shared ownership of solutions, and a well-defined but flexible management plan. The effectiveness of citizen advisory committees was challenged by dissent and mistrust among advisory committee members, failure of committee members to communicate management plans outside the committee proper, political intervention, and the threat to agency credibility if the agreed plans fail to be implemented. Citizen advisory committees can be an effective tool for crafting reservoir fishery management plans.

&lt;em&gt;Abstract&lt;/em&gt;.—Lake Norman is a 13,156-ha reservoir located north of Charlotte, North Carolina. Given its similarity in size to major reservoirs in adjacent states, anglers believe Lake Norman should produce a quality/trophy fishery for striped bass &lt;em&gt;Morone saxatilis&lt;/em&gt;. However, the low nutrient loading of this reservoir make this expectation unrealistic, which has lead to two decades of conflict. Specifically, the inability of fishery managers to meet the unrealistic expectations of striped bass anglers has resulted in public criticism of management actions and a general lack of respect for fisheries management principles. Two organized fishing groups have taken management into their own hands by stocking alewives &lt;em&gt;Alosa pseudoharengus &lt;/em&gt;and blueback herring &lt;em&gt;A. aestivalis&lt;/em&gt; in hopes of improving the forage base for striped bass. The North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC) undertook a number of efforts in an attempt to resolve this conflict, including meeting directly with angling groups, conducting public meetings, and providing information through the local print media. While each of these efforts met with some short-term success, they were unsuccessful over the long-term in elevating the debate beyond specific management options proposed by the angling groups. In 1998, the NCWRC established a Fisheries Advisory Committee; however, the membership did not represent all angling stakeholder groups. The committee was able to build consensus on a number of issues, but the activities and successes of the committee were not adequately conveyed to the general angling public. Recently, fisheries managers have attempted to engage the general angling public in a more effective manner. The NCWRC is currently providing population assessment data via the Internet, conducting an intensive creel survey, designing an angler opinion survey, and drafting a comprehensive fisheries management plan for Lake Norman.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT The bonytail &lt;em&gt;Gila elegans &lt;/em&gt;is endemic to the Colorado River drainage of the American West. In the lower basin, this unique cyprinid historically occurred in the Colorado River main stem and its tributaries from Glen Canyon Dam downstream into Mexico. The species is distinct morphologically and genetically although intermediate forms have been noted from the upper basin. Today, wild individuals may persist in the lower basin in Lake Mojave, Arizona–Nevada. Management activities include broodstock development, the development of grow-out ponds and native fish habitats, and the stocking of bonytail into lakes Mojave and Havasu. Smaller bonytail (&lt;10 cm) were first stocked in Lake Mojave in 1980. Very few of these bonytail have been collected during annual monitoring of the lake during the last 25 years. Today, larger fish (&gt;25 cm) are stocked after being passive integrated transponder-tagged. Predation, particularly on the smaller fish, is thought to be the main reason for the lack of recruitment. Bonytail were stocked in Lake Havasu in 1994 using fish greater than 25 cm. To date, 19 fish have been collected. Although this is a small number of individuals, their recapture is encouraging and suggests that bonytail can be established by stocking larger individuals. A management plan for the big-river fishes of the lower Colorado River basin has been completed by a multi-agency committee.

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:
&lt;em&gt;Abstract.&lt;/em&gt;—Pacific salmon are important to the First Nations of the Skeena River watershed in British Columbia. The Skeena Fisheries Commission (SFC) was formed in 1985 through a memorandum of understanding between the watershed’s five First Nations: Tsimshian, Gitxsan, Gitanyow, Wet’suwet’en, and Lake Babine. SFC focuses on salmon management, research, and conservation through governance and technical committees. This paper describes the development of fishery management capacity of SFC within the context of the cultural importance of salmon, the history of salmon management measures, and land claims. Capacity is analyzed in terms of the ability to perform eight management functions: policy making, negotiation and resource planning; stock assessment; fishery monitoring; enforcement and compliance; research, habitat and enhancement activities; data gathering and analysis for resource planning; creating benefits for fishermen and communities; and training and education. Policy making, negotiating, and planning occur between SFC and the Canadian Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) through formal and informal consultations and monthly technical meetings. SFC also participates in committees at the federal and international levels. Stock assessment activities include spawner enumerations, counting weirs, mark-recapture studies, hydroacoustic surveys, and sampling fish for genetic stock identification. Catch monitoring of the food fishery has been regularly conducted since 1991. First Nation Rangers and federal Fisheries Officers enforce traditional and federal law, respectively. Member First Nations conduct research projects with assistance from SFC staff and infrastructure. Habitat and conservation enhancement projects include road culvert assessments and hatchery rearing of Kitwanga Lake sockeye salmon &lt;em&gt;Oncorhynchus nerka&lt;/em&gt;. The creation of benefits for communities occurs through two in-river fisheries. Finally, training and education include SFC-run workshops and specialized training by external sources. SFC will conduct most management functions in the future; however, funding remains a constraint to program expansion. Key elements of the success of the SFC include: the cultural imperative to protect fish, the community origin and leadership of the SFC, a favorable political environment, the early recognition of the need for a watershed-wide organization, and the availability of government funding.

Abstract:
This work proposes a preliminary analysis of the environmental risks caused in the Uraim River basin, in which the river that names it is used as a source of water supply in the municipality of Paragominas, State of Para, Brazil. The method used was deductive, as it is based on two true premises: (1) The river basins are altered by human actions, (2) the quality of the source of water supply becomes a challenge for the operators of water treatment plants.

Abstract:
On February 25, 2009, OCP Ecuador S.A. faced its first incident; an oil spill consisting of 11,700 barrels of heavy crude oil in an area of high biodiversity in eastern Ecuador. An earth movement caused stress in the pipeline causing its breakage. The temporarily impacted area covered 30 hectares of soil and gravel along 180 kilometers of three rivers that form the high watershed of the Amazon River; these rivers are the Santa Rosa, Quijos and the Coca. During the emergency, while workers rallied to contain the spill and clean the affected area, other workers took safety precautions regarding

Abstract:
Abstract The Influx Management Envelope (IME) is a proven tool to assess management of influxes taken during MPD operations. Currently, IME establishes limits of manageable influx volumes for given kick intensity/surface back-pressures, to hand over from primary to secondary barrier (i.e., well-control equipment). Opportunities exist for advanced, safe operations when influx circulation up the riser is a concern but dealing with the influx in the hole may introduce additional risks, such as imposing choke line friction pressures (CLFP), particularly in ultra-deepwater operations.

TransCanada owns and operates over 38,000 km of pipeline throughout North America, which cross over 3,300 slopes and 1,200 watercourses. Ground movements on slopes at river crossings are an important pipeline hazard across Canada and especially within the Alberta system. These movements have led to several past pipeline ruptures and the development of a relatively extensive slope monitoring program. Historically, ground movement impacts are an industry-wide problem. The results of a 1998 study by the Gas Research Institute reported that external force damage from natural forces, including grou
