OCP 8383 Neighbourhood Plan Areas

The Official Community Plan (OCP) provides an overall strategic land use plan for the city. The broad scope of the OCP may not always address specific land use issues at the neighbourhood level, so the OCP provides policy direction for the implementation of neighbourhood plans capable of examining issues at the local level. Neighbourhood Plans provide clear and comprehensive land use vision for larger tracts of land greater than 40 ha to provide certainty for residents, land owners, the community as a whole, and developers regarding how an area may be developed. Neighbourhood Plans are policy documents intended to guide land use decisions over time, and strive to balance social, environmental and economic factors
Sanitary System Valve

A system valve is a facility that is fitted to a pipeline or orifice in which the closure member is either rotated or moved transversely or longitudinally in the waterway so as to control or stop the flow. System valves are used to regulate pressure, isolate, throttle flow, prevent backflow, and relieve pressure. System valve types include gate, plug, ball, cone and butterfly. These specific types may be classified as isolation valves. Isolation valves are designed to start and stop the flow of water within the distribution network (and isolate portions of the network for maintenance or repair). Isolation valves are the predominant type of system valve installed in a distribution network. They are commonly intended to be either fully open or fully closed. They are not intended to throttle flow by being partially open. A gate valve is an isolation valve (which is modeled here as a system valve) that is used to prevent water flow via a simple gate mechanism. Gate valves may be motorized (and remotely controlled), and they may also have small bypass valves. Gate valves are not installed in locations where they need to be frequently operated due to the time required to open and close them. A butterfly valve is similar to a gate valve but uses a disk that is rotated ninety degrees to control the flow of water. Butterfly valves operate easier under large pressures and volumes of water than standard gate valves, and are thus found on larger pipes. However, because the butterfly valve disk stays in the water path even when the valve is open, the valve creates a higher resistance to flow (i.e., pressure loss) than a gate valve. Additionally, if it becomes necessary to clean a main by using pigs or swabs, the butterfly valve would block the operation. Butterfly valves can be operated quickly, increasing the risk of serious water hammer.
Hydrography Line

The City of Prince George Hydropoly and hydroline datasets are used to portray surface water. The hydopoly and hydroline datasets represent the drainage network with features such as rivers, streams, canals, lakes, ponds and dams. These datasets were derived from the DEm produced from the 2014 LiDAR data capture point cloud. These polygon areas are defined by their subtypes using the CCSM codes; Canada Council on Surveying and Mapping, the custodian of national feature codes. The CCSM 1984 Draft Report on the classification of topological features is used as a government-wide standard. The Ministry of Forests uses this standard to create Feature Codes. Hydrography is the branch of applied sciences which deals with the measurement and description of the physical features of oceans, seas, coastal areas, lakes and rivers, as well as with the prediction of their change over time
Sanitary Control Valve

This layer contains all Sanitary Control Valves. Control valves are a set of valves that operate in special ways. There are three fundamental types of control valves: backflow control, air control, and altitude. A backflow control valve is a control valve designed to prevent water from flowing in the reverse direction. Essentially, backflow control valves allow flow in only one direction—the normal flow dirrection. Backflow control valves are open in the direction of normal flow and closed with the reversal of flow. Backflow control valves are commonly found near pump stations and reservoirs. Air control valves are control valves that are used to either relieve the system of trapped air or vacuums that may develop. Finally, an altitude valve is a control valve that controls water flow into a tower when the water level drops below a threshold. Altitude valves automatically shut off water flow when the water level in an elevated tank (or tower) reaches a preset elevation. A pressure reducing valve is a system valve with a horizontal disk for automatically reducing water pressures to a preset value. A pressure relief valve is a system valve that opens automatically when water pressure reaches a preset limit to relieve stress on a pipeline. Pressure relief valves are used to protect against rapid increases in pressure (i.e., water hammer). A pressure sustaining valve is a system valve that automatically sustains water pressures at a preset value. A pressure sustaining valve is similar to a pressure reducing valve but governs the pressure on the upstream rather than the downstream flow. Types of control valves represented include AirGap, AirControl, AirRelease, Altitude, BackflowControl, Combination, AtmosphericVacuum, DoubleCheck, PressureVacuum, ReducedPressureBackflow, RPZ, SimpleCheck Vacuum, VacuumBreaker, and VacuumRelease.

OCP 8383 Road Network Major 15

Schedule B-10: 15Year Road Network reflects planned future road links expected to be required to accommodate the city growth and development within the next 15years. The Map is based on EMME/3 transportation modeling and the Transportation Network Planning Study (AECOM, 2009). Therefore, the actual road network improvements will depend on how closely city growth matches the projections used in the model. The links are classified into: •Provincial Highways (MoTI jurisdiction): intended to connect Prince George to other regions of the province and beyond. •Arterial Roads: intended for the movement of large volumes of people and goods between different areas of the city; •Major and Minor Collector Roads: intended for the movement of people and goods between local roads and the arterial road network, while providing some degree of access to adjacent properties; and •Local Roads: intended primarily to provide access to adjacent properties.
Flood Plain - 1 in 200 yr Flood Limit, including 0.6m freeboard (FCL)

Basement Restriction Zone polygons; 200-year flood with 0.6m freeboard plus 2.4m As part of bylaw 8285 of the City of Prince George to designate land as flood plain and regulate the development of land that is subject to flooding. “flood construction level” means the Designated Flood Level plus the allowance for freeboard and issued to establish the elevation of the underside of a wooden floor system or top of concrete slab for habitable buildings and areas.

Lheidli T`enneh Lands (Subject to Treaty)

Subject to Final Treaty Lheidli T'enneh Lands The Final Agreement land package consists of approximately 4,330 hectares of treaty settlement land for Lheidli T'enneh. This includes 677 hectares of former reserves, 237 hectares of former federal Crown land, and 3,416 hectares of former provincial Crown land. Lheidli T'enneh will own its lands in fee simple. Lheidli T'enneh reserves will no longer exist as reserves and will become Lheidli T'enneh Lands. Federal and provincial laws will apply to all lands owned by Lheidli T'enneh. Under the treaty, Lheidli T'enneh will own two types of land. The majority of the lands, 4,275 hectares, will be called Lheidli T'enneh Lands. Lheidli T'enneh will have law-making authority over these lands. Lheidli T'enneh will have no governance authority over the remaining 55 hectares of land that will transfer to Lheidli T'enneh as private fee-simple land. Lheidli T'enneh treaty settlement lands will be transferred to the First Nation as of the effective date of the treaty. Many of the parcels of land are currently registered in the provincial land registration system and this registration will continue. In addition, the Final Agreement identifies other parcels that will be registered in this system. This arrangement will allow Lheidli T'enneh to use its lands to raise capital, something that is difficult to do with an Indian reserve. While all parties agree that as a general principle Lheidli T'enneh Lands will not be subject to expropriation, the Final Agreement contains processes whereby either Canada or British Columbia may expropriate Lheidli T'enneh Lands.
Sanitary Manhole

A manhole is a facility that is used to allow access to water lines. There are two primary types of manholes: standard manholes and drop manholes. A standard manhole is an opening in a sewer allowing access operators or equipment. It may also be called an access hole or maintenance hole. Drop manholes have a line entering the manhole at a higher elevation than the main flow line or channel (hence the “drop”). Drop manholes themselves come in two varieties: inside drop and outside drop. Inside drop manholes route the higher-elevation flow down through the manhole barrel. Outside drop manholes route the flow to the main manhole channel outside of the manhole.
Landuse Contracts

Land use contracts were commonly used through the 1970's to negotiate the terms and conditions of subdivision and developments throughout the Province of British Columbia. Pursuant to Section 547 of the Local Government Act, all land use contracts are to be terminated on June 30, 2024 by the Provincial Government. Local governments that have jurisdiction over land subject to a land use contract must, by 2022, adopt a zoning bylaw that will apply to the land on June 30, 2024. The City of Prince George Zoning Bylaw No.7850, 2007, as amended and replaced, is currently regulating land use and development across the City and will replace the land use contract once discharged.
Sanitary Pressurized Main

A pressurized main is a type of main line that is pressurized. Pressurized main is a concrete class. There are numerous types of pressurized mains in the water distribution model; they include air release, blow off, bypass, chemical injection, distribution main, interconnect, pipe bridge, sampling station, and transmission main. Transmission mains are large-diameter pipelines (24" or larger) that carry large quantities of raw water long distances from their source to a water treatment plant, then to the distribution grid system. Transmission mains generally run in a rather straight line from point to point. Lateral lines are not attached to transmission mains. Distribution mains are average-diameter pipes (4"–20") that transport potable water from transmission lines and redistribute it throughout an area. Lateral lines attach directly to distribution mains.
OCP 8383 Flood Hazard Development Permit Area

Sanitary Fitting

The Fitting class represents the facility found at the joint between two lines where a transition of some sort must occur. In order to cut down on the number of network feature classes and improve geometric network performance, we have chosen to rely on subtypes here to differentiate the different types of fitting-related classes. Fitting types include Bend, Cap, Cross, Coupling, ExpansionJoint, Offset, Reducer, Riser, Saddle, Sleeve, Tap, Tee, Wye, and Weld

Water Pressure Zones

A pressure zone is defined as the area bounded by both a lower and upper elevation, all of which receives water from a given hydraulic grade line (HGL) or pressure from a set water surface. The HGL is usually provided by one or more storage tanks located at the same elevations so they share high and low water surfaces. Ideally, pressure zones contain the same pressures and, therefore, the infrastructure within each pressure zone can be designed with a uniform set of design criteria which stresses efficiency, reliability and durability.
