TAKE ACTION! Norrish Creek Needs Real Restoration

LATEST UPDATE: Remediation fell short, and DFO is withholding records

CPKC’s September 2025 remediation work at Norrish did not meet the required standard. Further work is needed to repair the damaged habitat.

When we requested Fisheries and Oceans Canada’s records about the remediation, we received two hydrology reports—and 177 entirely blank pages because their contents had been withheld.

Norrish Creek is an important habitat for chum and coho salmon. Industrial-scale gravel mining has lowered groundwater levels, dried nearby wetlands and waterways, and caused the loss of thousands of fertilized salmon eggs.

Send a letter calling on federal and provincial ministers to enforce the law, fully restore the damaged habitat and release the withheld records.
