  • Monitoring of Municipal Salt Management Plans in the District of Muskoka
    Monitoring of Municipal Salt Management Plans In the District of Muskoka December 2010 Monitoring of Municipal Salt Management Plans in the District of Muskoka INTRODUCTION The mission of the Muskoka Watershed Council (MWC) is to Champion Watershed Health. In pursuing this mission, MWC evaluates the watershed through research on, and analysis of, issues impacting the health of the watersheds. The Muskoka Watershed Report Card is the primary tool used to communicate the results of this work. MWC also prepares position papers on issues of concern. PURPOSE AND RECOMMENDATIONS The purpose of this paper is to report on the implementation of municipal salt management plans across Muskoka. The Province also uses salt on provincial highways and private shopping centres use salt on their parking lots to ensure safe conditions. These applications will not be addressed in any detail in this report. In general, municipalities have methodically implemented their respective plans over the last four years. In particular, significant capital investment has been made in the construction of new salt domes with impervious floor surfaces, the installation of proper facilities to store pre-wetting material (water or a de-icing solution added to road salt or sand before, or during, application to the road ), and the acquisition of trucks and computers with pre-wetting capability. This effort should be commended. Not all actions can be implemented at the same time, and additional work is required to completely implement the salt management plans. In particular, the following activities, recommended in the salt management plan, are outstanding: 1. Monitoring of snow storage areas to determine the levels of salt, oil/grease and heavy metals present in the snow melt that are released to the environment.

Bracebridge Ontario, P1L 1W9 Muskoka Parry Sound Freshet Water Conditions Update May 11, 2019 MNRF Parry Sound District updated flood messaging on May 9, 2019. • Flood Warning is in effect for the Muskoka River, French River and Lower Pickerel River Watersheds • Flood Outlook is in effect for the remainder of the MNRF Parry Sound District Weather Forecast and Implications Lake levels and river flows are continuing their downward trends. MNRF has continued to put stoplogs in at dams in the upper watershed to help reduce flows to flood impacted areas. Areas that are experiencing flooding should continue to see levels recede as the effects of logging in the upper watersheds continue to take effect in the downstream watersheds. Due to recent precipitation in the North Bay area and northern part of the district. Lake Nipissing is continuing to rise and is expected to rise more in the coming days. Residents along the French River and lower Pickerel River watersheds may see a rise in water levels over the next week as a result from increased stormwater runoff or as a result of increased discharge from Lake Nipissing. We received 1-10mm of precipitation across the Muskoka and Magnetawan River watersheds in the last 24 hours. Daytime highs over the next week to range from 7°C to 15°C, and night time lows to range from 3°C to 5°C, depending on the weather service.

Snow stations are located near the Village of Rosseau, Arrowhead Provincial Park, Brooks Mills, Norway Point, Ouse Lake in Algonquin Park and near the Village of Sundridge. Above normal snow water content has been measured across the region since early January 2014. The snow water content in the snow pack as of April 11 th is 20% above normal or 120% of the historical average in the area. Snow water content in the remaining snow pack has fallen from the April 4th th snow survey readings but remains above normal for this time of year. Most managed lakes in the area are beginning to quickly trend up with rising inflows. MNR dams are currently prepared for optimal discharge through the spring melt.

Bracebridge Ontario, P1L 1W9 Muskoka Parry Sound Spring Water Conditions Update April 9th, 2015 Snow Parry Sound District MNRF carries out snow surveys twice monthly over the duration of the winter. The information collected is used to assess the potential for high water conditions or spring flooding. Snow stations are located near the Village of Rosseau, Arrowhead Provincial Park, Brooks Mills, Norway Point, Ouse Lake in Algonquin Park and near the Village of Sundridge. Above normal snow water content has been measured across the region again this year. The snow water content in the snow pack as of March 27th was 50% above normal or 150% of the historical average in the area. Three snow stations were measured on April 7th to determine the condition of the snow pack after warmer temperatures and precipitation preceding the Easter Weekend resulted in some runoff to local water bodies. Measurements from April 7th revealed that the snow water content in the remaining snow pack is still well above normal at Magnetawan, Big East River and Norway Point stations with readings of 111mm, 188mm and 120mm of water content respectively. The higher than normal snow water content combined with saturated watershed conditions experienced last fall due to heavy rainfall has prompted MNRF to draw down managed lakes to the lower portion of their Normal Operating Zones (NOZ) over the course of the winter.
