BC Government to get a deferral on old growth from first nations.
On November 2 the provincial government announced that it would be working in partnership with First Nations to defer the harvest of 2.6 million hectares of BC’s most at-risk old growth forests. Logging deferrals are viewed as a temporary measure – as recommended in the 2020 Old Growth Strategic Review – to allow for the development of a new approach to sustainable forest management that prioritizes ecosystem health.

Seven percent apportionment (nominations for tariff on possible shipping), over capacity.
The volume of oil to run is at capacity, with 7 percent to be apportioned.
The energy sector around the world works on a monthly cycle. The Trans Mountain Pipeline is part of that cycle. Apportionment describes the amount of demand shippers place on the pipeline in excess of its available capacity. Here’s a step-by-step guide to the apportionment determination that’s carried out every month for the existing Trans Mountain Pipeline system.
TM today
- Each month our shippers submit requests for how much petroleum (crude oil and refined products) they want to ship through the pipeline to service their customers. These requests are called ‘nominations’.
- Based on shippers’ nominations, we then determine the ‘capacity’ available on the pipeline for the month. Determining pipeline capacity is complex. Capacity is affected by, among other things, the types of products that have been nominated, any pipeline system maintenance activities that will reduce flows that month and carry-over volumes that haven’t completed their transit of the pipeline by month’s end.
- Based on available pipeline capacity and the volume of shipper nominations we received, we calculate apportionment using a method accepted by the Canada Energy Regulator and forming part of our tariff. A tariff includes the terms and conditions under which the service of a pipeline is offered or provided, including the tolls, the rules and regulations, and the practices relating to specific services.
- If shipper nominations are less than pipeline capacity, the apportionment percentage to that destination is “zero” and all the product volumes nominated by shippers are accepted to be transported that month.
- If shipper nominations exceed pipeline capacity, the apportionment is a percentage greater than zero.
Apportionment has been up to 40 percent…
The apportionment ( over capacity nominations) is sometimes up to 40 percent. This is a good indication that expansion is a good business plan.

The pipeline in use at this writing is the one that was built in 1958. The expansion project is building another line beside it.

Hey! it’s those 2 lines around planet earth called the tropics where our imaginations have caused us to limit legitimate heat extremes existence. Well between them and the Equator the line in the sand has be drawn, or not?
We are having a heat wave a polar heat wave!
So June 12th 2021 I took 8 photos of a sun dog in the western sky about 40 degrees in the horizon and the dome of the sky. Hexagon ice crystal in the Sirius cloud space cause a 22 degree circle to dog the sun. That Ice was pushed from the artic when warm vortex winds pushed it down from the pole to us.
Summer Solstice.
Summer Solstice was nearing on the 12th and the 23 degree tip of the Northern Hemisphere toward the sun was coming into full, meaning that the sun was closes to are artic pole then it would be in the 2021 summer season. The heat was creating the vortex driving the artic air that gave us a cool spring in front of it, with the Sun Dog ice along for the ride.
50 degrees C June 26th 2021
Our temperature reading comes from Lytton BC and the 26th of June Lytton was the top of a heat dome that took the town out. The heated air from the sun with the earth at its greatest tip was up to bat after delivering the sun dog on the 12th.
Be ready next year.
Be ready for that time period next year, and watch for the winter solstice here as the tip of the sun will be at its most in Antarctica on .that the December 21st (circa).

Trans mountain pipeline has a variance effecting it route through the Nicola Valley.
Canada Energy Regulator West Alternative Route Decision
On July 19, 2021, the Commission issued its decision to approve Trans Mountain’s variance application for the West Alternative Route, which is located in the Coldwater Valley area of British Columbia. The West Alternate Route is approximately 18 kilometres long, deviating from the approved corridor at Kilometre Post (KP) 931.43 and rejoining the approved corridor at KP 946.88.
