Eremomela gregalis gregalis (a. smith, 1829)

description: Eremomela damarensis Wahlberg, 1855: 213.
 VERBATIM TYPE LOCALITY: “ Hab. ad flumen Svakop terrae Damararum.”
 CURRENT STATUS: Synonym of Eremomela gregalis gregalis (A. Smith, 1829); Cisticolidae (Dickinson & Christidis 2014: 450).
TYPE MATERIAL: Wahlberg, in his original description (1855: 213), gave data for both male and female. According to Sundevall’s manuscript acquisition catalogue two specimens were received in Stockholm after Wahlberg’s death, and we consider these to be what remains of the type series. Gyldenstolpe (1926: 50) referred to NRM 569701 [11714] as a “type”, which we treat as a lectotype designation of this male collected 24 July 1854 at Swakop River. The paralectotype is NRM 534808 [11715], a mounted female collected with the lectotype.
VERIFIED TYPE LOCALITY: Swakop River, probably near the confluence of the Swakop and Kurikaub rivers, Namibia.
COMMENTS: Wahlberg’s notes on places where he collected birds in 1854 are sketchy, but Map D (between pp. 160–161 in Craig & Hummel 1994) shows that he collected along the Swakop River from just east of the confluence between the Swakop and Khan Rivers to Otjimbingwe. Although Clancey (1966: 485) identified the TL as Oosop, Swakop River, the TL cannot be identified precisely.

description: Political and social contexts affecting the planning for self-driving vehicles are explored through a mixed-methods case study of autonomous vehicle testing in Phoenix, Arizona. This thesis addresses the following five research questions: What are the public perceptions of self-driving vehicles? How common are self-driving vehicles within testing areas? What role will private firms creating autonomous driving technologies have in the planning for these vehicles? What role will public agencies have in supporting and regulating the use of self-driving vehicles? And are concerns of induced sprawl associated with driverless vehicles justified? The results produced five main findings. First, autonomous vehicles are popular in the Phoenix metropolis. Second, they are quite common in testing areas. Third, the developers of self-driving technologies are a major planner for these vehicles. Fourth, public planning for self-driving vehicles in the United States will follow the existing divisions of responsibilities across the various levels of government. And fifth, that the convenience provided by self-driving vehicles could incite sprawl within a one-hour commuting limit. Overall, these results indicate that the planning for self-driving vehicles will occur through existing political practices, and in response to persistent commuting behaviors. The practical and research ramifications of these findings are discussed, along with the enduring role of the car in American society. While the socially beneficial promises of self-driving vehicles are huge, planners must remember that they are essentially automobiles with similar potentials for sprawl and other effects harmful to cities and urban communities as their traditional counterparts.

 CURRENT STATUS: Eremomela usticollis usticollis Sundevall, 1850; Cisticolidae (Dickinson & Christidis 2014: 450).
TYPE MATERIAL: In his description, Sundevall (1850: 102) gave no indication that he had more than a single specimen at hand. From his acquisition catalogue it appears that the type series actually consisted of six specimens. Gyldenstolpe (1926: 50) referred to NRM 569704 [6710] as a “type”, here treated as a lectotype designation. It is a male collected 22 June 1844 in Leroma (near Pilanesberg). The five paralectotypes are: NRM 90166578 [6706], a female (according to the label) collected 27 November 1841 in the Magaliesberg; NRM 90166579 [6707], a female collected 1 December 1841 in the Magaliesberg; NRM 90166580 [6709], a female collected 31 December 1841 near Limpopo River, but Crocodile River (Hartebeespoort) according to his journal and other specimens; a male [6705] collected 22 November 1841 in the Magaliesberg sent on exchange to Bremen in 1870; and a male [6708] collected 1 December 1841 in the Magaliesberg, exchanged to Berlin in 1853 (and still present in the ZMB collection).
VERIFIED TYPE LOCALITY: Leroma (near Pilanesberg), North West Province.
COMMENTS: Wahlberg’s journal has no entries for the period 20–23 June 1844, but he appears to have spent 19 June–9 July “near Pilanesberg (at Leroma?)”. According to his journal entries he camped in the Magaliesberg for most of November and all of December 1841.

description: A small mammal study was undertaken at the former Yankee Girl Mine, Ymir, B.C. (the “Site”) to determine if metals contaminated tailings and surface soil have resulted in adverse health effects to the terrestrial ecosystem and would require remediation to protect the environment. A screening level Tier I ecological risk assessment conducted by a previous consultant yielded hazard quotients above the regulatory limit for the most sensitive terrestrial receptor at the Site (i.e., field mouse), suggesting the potential for adverse, population-level health effects. The screening level model was calibrated here using new data collected as part of a Site-specific small mammal study (e.g., surface soil and deer mice tissue concentrations). Despite orders of magnitude variations in soil concentrations, deer mice tissue concentrations were similar at all locations (1 control; 3 contaminated), and soil to deer mouse bioaccumulation factors were inversely correlated to soil concentration. The calibrated model yielded hazard quotients well below the regulatory limit, suggesting that deer mice have not been adversely affected. The significance of these findings with respect to remedial and/or management decisions at the Site will be discussed.

description: Στη σύγχρονη κοινωνία, η τεχνολογία έχει διαμορφώσει νέες συνθήκες σε πολλούς τομείς της ζωής. Η κοινωνία του 21ου αιώνα απαιτεί από τα μέλη της να ανταποκρίνονται στα προβλήματα, να επικοινωνούν αποτελεσματικά, να διαχειρίζονται κριτικά τις πληροφορίες, να συνεργάζονται για κοινούς στόχους και να αξιοποιούν την τεχνολογία ικανοποιητικά, ώστε να ενισχύουν τη γνώση και να παρέχουν νέα. Στην κοινωνία της μάθησης, στόχο θα πρέπει να αποτελεί η καλλιέργεια δεξιοτήτων από την προσχολική κιόλας ηλικία, που θα συμβάλλουν ώστε κάθε μαθητής να μετασχηματιστεί σ’ έναν ενεργό πολίτη. Ο όρος δεξιότητες χρησιμοποιείται για να περιγράψει τι γνωρίζει, τι κατανοεί και τι μπορεί να κάνει ένα άτομο. Σύμφωνα με το μοντέλο των Binkley et al, (2012), το οποίο χρησιμοποιείται ως πλαίσιο αναφοράς στην παρούσα εργασία οι δεξιότητες του 21ου αιώνα που πρέπει να καλλιεργηθούν είναι δέκα και χωρίζονται σε τέσσερις κατηγορίες. Σκοπός: Σκοπός της έρευνας είναι να διερευνηθεί εάν (1) η εφαρμογή σύγχρονων παιδαγωγικών μεθόδων (ρουτίνες σκέψης, διερευνητική μάθηση, επίλυση προβλημάτων, ομαδοσυνεργατική διδασκαλία) μπορεί να συμβάλλει στην ανάπτυξη δεξιοτήτων του 21ου αιώνα σε παιδιά προσχολικής ηλικίας και (2) εάν η χρήση ψηφιακών εργαλείων ενταγμένων σε συγκεκριμένες μεθόδους διδασκαλίας μπορεί να καλλιεργήσει τις δεξιότητες του 21ου αιώνα σε παιδιά προσχολικής ηλικίας. Μέθοδος: Για την διερεύνηση του θέματος χρησιμοποιήθηκε η ποιοτική έρευνα. Τα ερωτήματα απαντήθηκαν μέσα από συμμετοχική παρατήρηση σε μία τάξη νηπιαγωγείου από την εκπαιδευτικό και σε μία αίθουσα λογοθεραπείας από τον θεραπευτή. Για τη συλλογή δεδομένων σχεδιάστηκαν δύο εργαλεία παρατήρησης (κλείδα και πρωτόκολλο παρατήρησης). Το δείγμα αποτελείται από είκοσι επτά (27) παιδιά προσχολικής ηλικίας (4-6 ετών), εκ των οποίων τα είκοσι δύο (22) φοιτούν σε νηπιαγωγείο και είναι τυπικά αναπτυσσόμενα, ενώ πέντε (5) είναι παιδιά με ειδικές εκπαιδευτικές ανάγκες. Αποτελέσματα: Μέσα από την εφαρμογή τριών προγραμμάτων που χαρακτηρίζονται από διαθεματικότητα και σύγχρονες παιδαγωγικές μεθόδους, τα παιδιά ανέλαβαν ενεργό ρόλο στη μάθηση τους και ανέπτυξαν σημαντικές δεξιότητες του 21ου αιώνα. Η αξιοποίηση ψηφιακών παιχνιδιών σ’ ένα μέρος του δείγματος (17 παιδιά), ώθησε τα τυπικά αναπτυσσόμενα παιδιά και τα παιδιά με ειδικές εκπαιδευτικές ανάγκες, να συμμετέχουν με περισσότερο ενδιαφέρον στην εκπαιδευτική διαδικασία και να αναπτύξουν απαραίτητες δεξιότητες του 21ου. αιώνα.

 CURRENT STATUS: Synonym of Camaroptera brachyura brachyura (Vieillot, 1820); Cisticolidae (Dickinson & Christidis 2014: 454).
TYPE MATERIAL: Sundevall (1850: 103) mentioned both males and females in his original description. From his acquisition catalogue he apparently had five specimens at hand when he described the species. Gyldenstolpe (1926: 51) referred to NRM 569705 [4701] as a “type”, which we treat as a lectotype designation of this adult male collected at Durban on 26 October 1839. The four paralectotypes are: NRM 537663 [4700], a mounted female collected at Durban on 5 December 1839; NRM 90166584 [6721], a female collected 15 August 1840 at Durban; NRM 90166583 [4699], a female collected 8 July 1839 at Durban; and a male [6720] from Durban, collected 18 June 1840, exchanged to Berlin in 1853 (but no longer in the ZMB collection).
VERIFIED TYPE LOCALITY: Durban, KwaZulu-Natal.
 COMMENTS: The TL was incorrectly restricted to Umkomaas River by Gyldenstolpe (1934). Wahlberg returned to Durban from Umkomaas on 11 September and remained there until 29 October when he travelled north-east to the Tugela (Thukela) River. NRM 90166644 [6722], a male collected 13 January (or perhaps June?) 1844 in Saulspoort, was recorded by Sundevall in the manuscript catalogue after two Camaroptera olivacea as “a dist. sp.”. Following Article 72.4.1 of the Code: “or doubtfully attributes to the taxon”, this specimen, presently identified as Camaroptera brevicaudata sharpei von Zedlitz, 1911, is not included in the original type series..

description: Item Response Theory (IRT) aims to assess latent abilities of respondents based on the correctness of their answers in aptitude test items with different difficulty levels. In this paper, we propose the $β^3$-IRT model, which models continuous responses and can generate a much enriched family of Item Characteristic Curve (ICC). In experiments we applied the proposed model to data from an online exam platform, and show our model outperforms a more standard 2PL-ND model on all datasets. Furthermore, we show how to apply $β^3$-IRT to assess the ability of machine learning classifiers. This novel application results in a new metric for evaluating the quality of the classifier's probability estimates, based on the inferred difficulty and discrimination of data instances.
May we please clean up? : integrating risk-based approaches with effluent permitting requirements at mine reclamation sites

description: The “one size fits all” concept has frequently been applied by regulators to environmental decision-making, much to the frustration of environmental managers. Governments at all levels are often well intentioned but also under pressure to render decisions that are regionally, nationally or even internationally consistent. However, the environment that we are attempting to conserve, protect, and/or manage is rarely, if ever, consistent from site to site. Risk-based approaches rely on conceptual and operational methods that are widely accepted in British Columbia and internationally for managing contaminated sites. Moreover, these approaches provide regulators with the necessary confidence that a proposed discharge meets provincial and federal expectations for pollution control. End-of-pipe standards often lack flexibility and can stall reclamation work. For example, the treated effluent discharge at the former Britannia Mine in Howe Sound did not meet effluent permitting expectations based on conventional permitting practices. Therefore, a risk-based approach was used to develop a study program in which the characteristics of the environment, the form of the metals in the effluent, the interaction of the effluent with ecological receptors, and scientific uncertainty were all considered. The outcome of the assessment was that the discharge was acceptable from an environmental risk perspective. The biological tools used in risk assessment offer defensible and environmentally appropriate solutions for many substances, including those for which standards/guidelines do not exist or for which recognized analytical methods are unavailable (e.g., flocculants and coagulants).
Observing and Modeling the Optical Counterparts of Short-Period Binary Millisecond Pulsars.

Subjects: Astronomy

description: In this dissertation, I explore the subject of short-period binary millisecond pulsars discovered by the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope and radio follow-up teams, and present observations of fields containing eight recently discovered short-period (Porb < 1 d) binary millisecond pulsars using the telescopes at MDM Observatory. The goal of these observations was to detect the optical counterparts of the binaries and, for the best-suited counterparts detected, to observe the photometric variation of the companion that happens over the course of the orbit in various filters. The hope was to then use the light curves to model the systems and obtain constraints on the mass of the neutron stars which are likely to be some of the most massive neutron stars in the galaxy. Optical counterparts to four of these systems are detected, one of which, PSR J2214+3000, is a novel detection. Additionally, I present the fully orbital phase-resolved B, V , and R light curves of the optical counterparts to two objects, PSR J1810+1744 and PSR J2215+5135, for which I employ the ELC model of Orosz & Hauschildt (2000) to measure the unknown system parameters. For PSR J1810+1744 I find that the system parameters cannot be fit even assuming that 100% of the spin-down luminosity of the pulsar is irradiating the secondary, and so radial velocity measurements of this object will be required for the complete solution. However, PSR J2215+5135 exhibits light curves that are extremely well constrained using the ELC model and we find that the mass of the neutron star is constrained by these and the radio observations to be MNS > 1.75 solar masses; at the 3-sigma level. I also find a discrepancy between the model temperature and the measured colors of this object which I interpret as possible evidence for an additional high-temperature source such as a quiescent disk. Given this and the fact that PSR J2215+5135 contains a relatively high mass companion (Mc > 0.1 solar masses), I propose that similar to the binary pulsar systems PSR J1023+0038 and IGR J18245-2452, the pulsar may transition between accretion- and rotation-powered modes.

description: We consider the multi-target detection problem of recovering a set of signals that appear multiple times at unknown locations in a noisy measurement. In the low noise regime, one can estimate the signals by first detecting occurrences, then clustering and averaging them. In the high noise regime however, neither detection nor clustering can be performed reliably, so that strategies along these lines are destined to fail. Notwithstanding, using autocorrelation analysis, we show that the impossibility to detect and cluster signal occurrences in the presence of high noise does not necessarily preclude signal estimation. Specifically, to estimate the signals, we derive simple relations between the autocorrelations of the observation and those of the signals. These autocorrelations can be estimated accurately at any noise level given a sufficiently long measurement. To recover the signals from the observed autocorrelations, we solve a set of polynomial equations through nonlinear least-squares. We provide analysis regarding well-posedness of the task, and demonstrate numerically the effectiveness of the method in a variety of settings. The main goal of this work is to provide theoretical and numerical support for a recently proposed framework to image 3-D structures of biological macromolecules using cryo-electron microscopy in extreme noise levels.

description: “Ocean Bombay” is a social history of a colonial city of itinerants. Between 1839 and 1937 the actions of the British Indian colonial state and itinerancy upon one another shaped both the borders of the newly independent nations in 1947 and the changing notions of community and human relationship with space in the South Asian subcontinent. This dissertation charts the story of that development by studying itinerant groups staking their belonging to communities and space in colonial, port Bombay: Sidi shipworkers, Bombay-Aden merchants, Irani cafe owners, nomadic groups, publishers, filmmakers, and actresses. In doing so I intervene in the urban historiography of the city by writing about Bombay’s forgotten transoceanic past as a port city straddling the transformation of the subcontinent from colonial state to nation-state. Further, I rethink the concepts of “community” and border-making as used in South Asian historical and theoretical thinking by examining them through the lens of itinerancy and gender. “Ocean Bombay” thus locates Bombay society at the intersection of several oceanic geographies, through the study of an archive built from fragments and interviews collected across India, the United Kingdom, and Iran.

description: The existence and stability of the linear hydrogenic chain H$_3$ and H${}_2^-$ in a strong magnetic field is established. Variational calculations for H$_3$ and H${}_2^-$ are carried out in magnetic fields in the range $10^{11}\leq B \leq 10^{13}\,$G with 17-parametric (13-parametric for H${}_2^-$), physically adequate trial function. Protons are assumed infinitely massive, fixed along the magnetic line. States with total spin projection $S_z=-3/2$ and magnetic quantum numbers $M=-3,-4,-5$ are studied. It is shown that for both H$_3$ and H${}_2^-$ the lowest energy state corresponds to $M=-3$ in the whole range of magnetic fields studied. As for a magnetic field $B \gtrsim 10^{11}\,$G both H$_3$ and H${}_2^-$ exist as metastable states, becoming stable for $B \geq 1.9 \times 10^{11}\,$G and for $B \geq 2.7 \times 10^{11}\,$G, respectively. The excited states $^4(-4)^+$, $^4(-5)^+$ of ${\rm H}_3$ and H${}_2^-$ appear at magnetic fields $B > 7 \times 10^{11}$ and $10^{12}$\,G, respectively.

description: Drymoica fulvifrons Sundevall, 1850: 104.
 VERBATIM TYPE LOCALITY:“ Caffraria inferior. ”
 CURRENT STATUS: Synonym of Cisticola galactotes galactotes (Temminck, 1823); Cisticolidae (Dickinson & Christidis 2014: 457).
 TYPE MATERIAL: Sundevall, in his original description(1850: 104), mentioned both male and female. From his acquisition catalogue it appears that he had four specimens at hand for his description (“ Dr. ad sp. fulvifrons ”). Gyldenstolpe (1926: 42) referred to NRM 568773 [4710] as a “type”, which we treat as a lectotype designation; it is an adult male collected 8 December 1839 in Durban. The three paralectotypes are: NRM 90191370 [4709], an adult male collected 10 October 1839 in Durban; NRM 534298 [4711], a mounted female collected in Durban in 1839; and RMNH. AVES.171375 [4708], a mounted male collected in December 1839 (date illegible, possibly 12 December) in Durban, and exchanged to Leiden in 1850.
VERIFIED TYPE LOCALITY: Durban, KwaZulu-Natal.
 COMMENTS: Erroneously changed to Umvoti (mVoti) River, KwaZulu-Natal, ca. 50 km northeast of Durban by Gyldenstolpe (1934). However, according to journal entries and specimens collected, Wahlberg stayed at Durban from 13 November to 29 December 1839. His only expedition to the mVoti area in 1839 was from 31 October to 12 November, when no birds at all were collected there.

Occupying Space: The Public Life of Africana Religions in New York

description: This study describes the public life of Africana religions in New York City, the religions brought to New York City directly from Africa, or from the African Diaspora, particularly from the Caribbean and South America, where traditional African religions brought by the enslaved during the times of the Transatlantic Slave Trade were adapted to the new circumstances. Historically, practitioners of these religions have faced harsh persecution, whether during the time of enslavement when they could face death for their practices or when they came to the United States in the last century, where their religions were seen by many as evil and could lead to persecution by the authorities. Therefore, in the context of the United States, these religious traditions have for a long time been practiced in secret, in basements, and behind locked doors. In the last few decades, however, Africana religious practitioners have been trying to leave their secrecy behind and to become more public and visible. This study suggests that the improvement to the standing of these traditions and their devotees has occurred, and will continue to do so, precisely by occupying space, by actively reclaiming spaces hitherto denied, both physically and metaphorically--a notion that will be understood holistically across several practical and conceptual domains. The first chapter of this study explores the history of Africana religions in the United States and the public attitudes towards them, as they have evolved from facing extreme persecution and stigma to greater acceptance and a more significant public standing. The second chapter discusses in more detail the impact that practicing in secrecy has had on devotees, their rituals, and their religious lives. Also included in this section is an analysis of the ceremonies that are now being practiced in public in New York City and their related spatial reclamation, be it in beaches, in parks, or different types of public venues. The third chapter looks at the way Africana religious presences have manifested through and taken space in the cultural domain, widely defined, and at the way that the diffusion of these presences has impacted on the make-up of the city itself. The fourth and final chapter considers the visibility and popularity Africana religions are now gaining in popular culture and the arts, including in music, concerts, and dance performances; in the visual arts; in public art; and in television and film. This research was conducted from the perspective of a practitioner of Africana religions seeking to advocate for the rights of Africana religious practitioners with respect to equality, visibility, and public presence without discrimination.

description: Drymoica chloris Sundevall, 1850: 104.
 VERBATIM TYPE LOCALITY: “ Caffraria.”
 CURRENT STATUS: Synonym of Cisticola natalensis natalensis (A. Smith, 1843); Cisticolidae (Dickinson & Christidis 2014: 458).
 TYPE MATERIAL: There is no indication in Sundevall (1850: 104) that there was more than a single specimen available, rather he states that he had no access to any female: “ f# ignota ”. In Sundevall’s acquisition catalogue there is a reference to a single specimen, and in his list of duplicates the species is not mentioned. The holotype is NRM 568777 [6752a], a male collected 11 February 1840 in Pietermaritzburg. This was supported by Gyldenstolpe (1926: 40–41), who also identified it as a juvenile specimen of Cisticola natalensis natalensis. Drymoica chloris Sundevall, 1850 is thus a junior subjective synonym of Drymoica natalensis A. Smith, 1843.
VERIFIED TYPE LOCALITY: Town Hill, Pietermaritzburg, KwaZulu-Natal.
COMMENTS: There is no entry in the journal for this day, but date and place are in line with other specimens collected at the same time.

description: ClusterPyXT is a new software pipeline to generate spectral temperature, X-ray surface brightness, pressure, and density maps from X-ray observations of galaxy clusters. These data products help elucidate the physics of processes occurring within clusters of galaxies, including turbulence, shock fronts, nonthermal phenomena, and the overall dynamics of cluster mergers. ClusterPyXT automates the creation of these data products with minimal user interaction, and allows for rapid analyses of archival data with user defined parameters and the ability to straightforwardly incorporate additional observations. In this paper, we describe in detail the use of this code and release it as an open source Python project on GitHub.

description: New solutions to the abelian U(1) Higgs model, corresponding to vortices of integer and half-integer winding number bound onto the edges of domain walls and possibly surrounded by annular current flows, are described, based on a fine-grained analysis of the topology of such configurations in spacetime. The existence of these states, which saturate BPS bounds in specific limits and are quite reminiscent of D-branes and membranes in general, could have interesting and some important consequences in a wide range of physical contexts. For instance, they raise the possibility that for some regimes of couplings the usual vortex of unit winding number would split into two vortices each of one-half winding number bound by a domain wall. A similar approach may also be relevant to other known topological states of field theory.

Odd symmetric functions and categorification

Publisher: name: Columbia University

Subjects: subject: Mathematics
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: We introduce q- and signed analogues of several constructions in and around the theory of symmetric functions. The most basic of these is the Hopf superalgebra of odd symmetric functions. This algebra is neither (super-)commutative nor (super-)cocommutative, yet its combinatorics still exhibit many of the striking integrality and positivity properties of the usual symmetric functions. In particular, we give odd analogues of Schur functions, Kostka numbers, and Littlewood-Richardson coefficients. Using an odd analogue of the nilHecke algebra, we give a categorification of the integral divided powers form of U_q^+(sl_2) inequivalent to the one due to Khovanov-Lauda. Along the way, we develop a graphical calculus for indecomposable modules for the odd nilHecke algebra.

description: A scale--dependent effective action for gravity is introduced and an exact nonperturbative evolution equation is derived which governs its renormalization group flow. It is invariant under general coordinate transformations and satisfies modified BRS Ward--Identities. The evolution equation is solved for a simple truncation of the space of actions. In 2+epsilon dimensions, nonperturbative corrections to the beta--function of Newton's constant are derived and its dependence on the cosmological constant is investigated. In 4 dimensions, Einstein gravity is found to be ``antiscreening'', i.e., Newton's constant increases at large distances.

 VERBATIM TYPE LOCALITY: “ Caffraria. ”
 CURRENT STATUS: Cisticola natalensis natalensis (A. Smith, 1843); Cisticolidae (Dickinson & Christidis 2014: 458).
TYPE MATERIAL: In the original description by Sundevall (1850: 104) both sexes are mentioned. In Sundevall’s acquisition catalogue only two specimens are listed and are referred to as “f#” and “f# jun”. All specimens were sexed by Wahlberg (according to Gyldenstolpe), but for this species all the original Wahlberg labels are lost. Gyldenstolpe (1926: 41) mentioned a female, referred to as “cotype” and an adult male as “type”. We treat the latter as a lectotype designation of NRM 568775 [6754], which is a study skin and may be female, but was referred to by both Sundevall and Gyldenstolpe as a probable male, collected 4 June 1840 in Durban. The paralectotype NRM 568776 [6753] is a study skin of a female, possibly juvenile, collected 20 June 1840 in Durban.

A review of the management of the Britannia Mine remediation project : counting the pennies
Creators: name: Azevedo, Barry, 1964-

Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia

description: The Province of British Columbia began planning and budgeting for the Britannia Mine Remediation Project in 1997, subsequent to the B.C. Contaminated Sites Regulation becoming effective. Remediation planning was conducted in significant consultation with stakeholders, and with the guidance of a technical advisory committee, which has proven a valuable approach. The Contaminated Sites Regulation provided a legal incentive for the former mine owners to reach a settlement with the Province. A settlement was reached between the Province and the former mine owners in April 2001. The settlement only provided a portion of the total estimated remediation cost and therefore required the Province to commit additional dollars to fully fund the plan. The Province subsequently reached an agreement with the new owner of the mine site in 2003 and took ownership of the vast majority of the Britannia Mine lands. The Province also received development levies from the privately held lands and other cash-in-kind considerations. The original remediation plan and budget was developed with only limited site knowledge; however, the project budget has benefited from some early conservative assumptions, effective project management, and cost-effective WTP procurement and delivery. However, there remain substantial outstanding liabilities that may impact the budget in the future.
