regional/local and small airports and ports to local entities. Negotiations for the

Regions environmental program for all transportation programs and activities and
services within British Columbia including air, rail, harbours and ports. Key roles for
this division include providing advice on matters of compliance with applicable
environmental regulations and standards; implementing, monitoring and reporting on the
Regions Environmental Management System; ensuring compliance with the Canadian
Environment Assessment Act; conducting environmental baseline studies required for the
