Abstract

The Upper Bulkley Fish and Aquatic Review project (October 2016) produced a set of analyses focused on select pressure and quantity indicators as determined by the Wild Salmon Policy Strategy 2. This data set presents the results of the pressure indicator road density analysis. Road densities have been widely correlated to salmon habitat degradation and have been ranked as a high value indicator by the Wild Salmon Policy (WSP) Habitat Working Group.
