  • 2011 State of the Science
    Lake Winnipeg Research Consortium Inc. Science Workshop 2011 Lake Winnipeg - State of the Science What is the Scientific Basis for Understanding and Protecting Lake Winnipeg? Siobhan Field Station Fort Whyte Nature Centre 1961 McCreary Road, Winnipeg April 26th and 27th, 2011 By: K.J. Scott1, G. McCullough2, M. Stainton3, B. Ayles4, B. Hann2 1Lake Winnipeg Research Consortium Inc. 2University of Manitoba 3Fisheries and Oceans Canada 4Independent EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The purpose of the 2011 LWRC Science Workshop was to evaluate the progress made on the science priorities and research needs identified in the 2004 Federal-Provincial Science Workshop, with an emphasis on synthesizing and evaluating existing knowledge about the lake ecosystem. In essence, this report describes the state of the science on Lake Winnipeg. The 2004 proposals and recommendations were intended to aid the discussions between Manitoba and Canada to identify the individual and joint roles of these governments concerning Lake Winnipeg. Acting on those proposals was expected to be the first step in the development of an ongoing comprehensive science program for Lake Winnipeg. Much has been accomplished, especially in terms of nutrient loading estimates and model development. It is apparent, however, that research and monitoring activities remain loosely organized and a comprehensive science program on Lake Winnipeg was never fully realized. Consequently, much knowledge remains dispersed among agencies and until very recently, unpublished. A regular, comprehensive synthesis of information would aid in defining new research that is based on addressing the knowledge gaps that meet management needs. Below is a brief summary of the salient scientific findings in recent years and research gaps that were identified during Discussions at the 2011 Science Workshop.

Stevke,United States Member (ii) SUMMARY The Uses Committeehas analyzed the impacts of GDU onmajor water uses in the Red, Assiniboine and Souris river basins andon Lakes Winnipegand Manitoba. Water Uses includedin the analysis are: munici- pal,industrial, agricultural, rural domestic, recreational, fish and wildlife, andother. The analysisof GDU impacts is confined to usesin Canada.The effects upon theseimpacts of variousalternatives andmodi- ficationsto the authorized GDU project were alsoanalysed. The following sections summarize theresults of the Uses Committee'sanalysis. (a)Municipal Use (1) Increasedcosts of municipal water supplytreatment: Deteriorated water quality will require, as a minimum measure,that currentlyinstalled or planned water treatmentplants be operated at peakefficiency, producing the best quality of water ofwhich they are capable.This measure represents an increased cost of $59,000 annually. Constituentssuch as nitrates, sulfates andsodium would remain at post- GDU levels since reduction of theseparameters is beyond the capability ofcurrent treatment facilities.
