Darryl Arsenault

Okanagon Valley:

Darryl conducts an "hands-on" StreamKeepers course based out of Kelowna, BC, and covers modules 1, 2, 3, 4, 7 and 11, with a demonstration of modules 7 and 11. The course takes 2 days to complete and participants will receive a PSkF certificate when they finish. Bring your hipwaders or rubber boots and prepare to be immersed in your local stream habitat!

The course cost is $50.00 plus $20.00 for the Streamkeepers Handbook and Modules. Photocopies of modules 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, and 11 will be supplied for those who don't want to purchase the handbook.

The course is taught by Darryl Arsenault, M.SC., R.P.Bio., who is a registered professional fisheries / aquatic biologist who has been completing stream assessments for the past 10 years.

He has a diverse background in aquatic ecology that has been gleaned from mining environmental impact assessments (EIA), oil spill EIA's, linear corridor studies, and numerous land development EIA's.

The courses are taught under the organization of Michelle Kam, one of the City of Kelowna's Watershed Co-ordinators. Contact info. for Michelle is phone: 250-862-3339, ext. 338, e-mail mkam@city.Kelowna.bc.ca. Michelle organizes the courses and sometimes the City provides partial funding for volunteers.
