Annacis Island

Annacis Island is a narrow island under the jurisdiction of City of Delta in Lower Mainland, British Columbia, located just downstream of the south arm of the Fraser River bifurcation between Lulu Island to the north and the Delta peninsula to the south. The island is now mostly an industrial zone, and contains one of Metro Vancouver's secondary wastewater treatment plants, the Annacis Island Wastewater Treatment Plant. The island is also home to the British Columbia Institute of Technology's Annacis Island campus. The southern part of the island is connected to Delta via the Alex Fraser Bridge, which is part of Highway 91. Connections northward to Richmond and New Westminster are via smaller bridges on Highway 91. At the eastern end of the island there is also the Annacis Island Swing Bridge which connects the island to the Queensborough neighborhood of New Westminster on the eastern end of Lulu Island. Annacis Island is served by a public bus that connects to 22nd Street Station in New Westminster. The wider part of the Fraser River south of the island is known as Annieville Channel (upstream) and City Reach (downstream), while the more narrow channel north of the island is Annacis Channel. The eastern (upstream) tip of the island is known as Shoal Point, and the western (downstream) tip as Purfleet Point. Origin of the name The island's name is derived from "Annance's Island," named for Noel François Annance, an Abenaki and a Hudson's Bay Company clerk, who travelled with Chief Factor James McMillan to found Fort Langley in 1827. History Once a farming and fishing island, the island opened on 1955 as Canada's first industrial park. On August 7, 2017, a fire broke out in a warehouse on Annacis Island. References
Île Annacis

L'île Annacis (Annacis Island) est une île située dans le bras sud du fleuve Fraser, à Delta, en Colombie-Britannique. L'île est principalement industrielle (port de Vancouver), et héberge notamment une des usines secondaires de traitement des eaux usées du district régional du Grand Vancouver et un des pôles de l'Institut de technologie de la Colombie-Britannique. Géographie La partie la plus large du fleuve Fraser, au sud de l'île, est connue sous le nom de Annieville Canal (en amont) et City Reach (en aval), tandis que le bras plus étroit situé au nord de l'île est nommé Annacis Canal. La pointe est de l'île est connue sous le nom de Shoal Point, et celle de l'ouest (aval) est baptisée Purfleet Point. Historique Le nom de l'île est un dérivé de « île d'Annance », du nom de Noël François Annance, un Abénaquis greffier de la Compagnie de la Baie d'Hudson, qui a voyagé avec James McMillan, et a participé à l'établissement de Fort Langley (en) en 1827. Le nom de « Annace’s Island » est parfois rencontré. En 1955, est inauguré sur l'île le premier parc industriel du Canada. Les travaux menés par le Groupe Grosvenor avaient commencé en 1951 sur une île jusqu'alors consacrée à l'agriculture et à la pêche. Un pont rail-route, nommé Derwent Way Bridge, relie l'île à l' île Lulu. En 1960, le Queensborough Bridge qui relie l'île Lulu à l'île d'Annacis est inauguré. Il est acheté par la province en 1966. En 1975, une station d'épuration est construite sur l'île ; elle traite les eaux usées de Burnaby, Surrey, Coquitlam, Port Moody, Delta et Richmond. En 1986, le pont Alex Fraser (en) est inauguré dans le prolongement du Queensborough Bridge, et le Derwent Way Bridge est reconstruit. En 2010, le Southern Railway of British Columbia termine les travaux d'un terminal rail-mer au sud de l'île. Ce système permettant de charger des wagons et des remorques routières sur des barges, doit traiter 6000 wagons par an, desservant l'Île de Vancouver et des industries côtières. Mi-2011, la desserte ferroviaire de l'île est stoppée, du fait de la collision d'une barge avec le pont desservant l'île. Les wagons sont redirigés vers les installations du Burlington Northern and Santa Fe Railway à Tilbury, en face de l'île au sud, et leurs chargements sont transférées par bateau. Transports La partie sud de l'île est reliée à Delta via le pont Alex Fraser, qui fait partie de l'autoroute 91. Les connexions vers le nord vers Richmond et New Westminster se font par des ponts plus petits sur l'autoroute 91. À l'extrémité est de l'île, il y a aussi le pont Derwent Way qui relie l'île au quartier Queensborough de New Westminster. L'île est desservie par un bus public qui se connecte à la gare 22nd Street du SkyTrain de Vancouver à New Westminster. Un pont rail-route ouvrant permet la desserte de l'île par le Southern Railway of British Columbia. Références Portail de la Colombie-Britannique Portail de Vancouver Portail des îles

Arctic Pacific Lakes Provincial Park

Der Arctic Pacific Lakes Provincial Park ist ein 13.887 ha großer Provinzpark im kanadischen British Columbia. Der Park wurde im Jahr 2000 gegründet und liegt relativ abgelegen im Norden des Interior Plateau, im Fraser-Fort George Regional District. Die nächstgelegene größere Ansiedlung ist Prince George im Nordosten. Anlage Das Schutzgebiet befindet sich auf dem McGregor Plateau, einem Unterplateau des Interior Plateau. Der Park liegt auf der nordamerikanischen kontinentalen Wasserscheide und die Seen im Park entwässern in verschiedene Ozeane. Der Arctic Lake entwässert über den Parsnip River in den Peace River und der dann über Slave River und Mackenzie River in den Arktischen Ozean. Der Portage Lake und der Pacific Lake entwässern über den Bad River (James Creek) sowie Herrick Creek in den McGregor River und dann über den Fraser River in den Pazifischen Ozean. Bei dem Arctic Pacific Lakes Provincial Park handelt es sich um ein Schutzgebiet der Kategorie II (Nationalpark). Geschichte Wie bei fast allen Provinzparks in British Columbia gilt auch für diesen, dass er lange bevor die Gegend von europäischen Einwanderern besiedelt oder sie Teil eines Parks wurde, Jagd- und Fischereigebiet verschiedener Stämme der First Nations war. Auch alte Handelswege der First Nations durchquerten dem Park. Diese nutzte auch Alexander MacKenzie für die erste Durchquerung Nordamerikas nördlich von Mexiko nach Westen zum Pazifischen Ozean im Jahr 1793. Der Park wurde am 29. Juni 2000 durch den Protected Areas of British Columbia Act, zusammen mit 28 weiteren Parks, gegründet. Benachbarte Parks In der Nähe dieses Parks befinden sich noch weitere Provincial Parks. Neben anderen Parks in der relativen Umgebung liegt im Nordosten der Monkman Provincial Park. Aktivitäten Eine touristische Infrastruktur findet sich im Park nicht.

The park is located 90 kilometres northeast of Prince George, British Columbia and is 13,887 ha. in area. History and conservation The park was established 29 June 2000. The parks aims to protect fall and spring grizzly bear populations, and year-round caribou habitat, as well as fish populations including lake trout, bull trout, rainbow trout, kokanee, dolly varden, mountain whitefish, redside shiner, lake trout, chinook salmon, and Arctic grayling. The secondary role of the park is to protect the 1793 route of Alexander Mackenzie through the continental divide. External links "Arctic Pacific Lakes Park". BC Geographical Names.
