2019 Provincial Construction Program Highway & Water Management Projects 2019 Provincial Construction Program Highway & Water Management Projects The Government of Alberta is investing in highway and water management infrastructure to improve safe travel on Alberta’s highways, connect communities, and help keep Albertans working. The projects will enhance transportation safety, support major trade corridors to improve travel for commercial carriers, and provide irrigation for the agriculture sector and flood mitigation protection for Alberta communities. The 2019 Construction Program includes: • Major capital projects scheduled for the next four years (2019-20 to 2022-23) • Capital maintenance and renewal (bridge construction and highway rehabilitation) projects scheduled for the next three years (2019-20 to 2021-22) • Water management infrastructure projects scheduled for the next three years (2019-20 to 2021-22) • Slide repair projects scheduled for the next year (2019-20) This program includes planning, design and construction work to reflect the life cycle of projects. The 2019 Provincial Construction Program is subject to change. Projects may move on or off the construction program based on emerging needs, changing construction schedules, or available funding. Minor safety-related improvements may be added as identified, generally in conjunction with larger projects. The work is defined as: • Planning – planning studies and the preliminary analyses completed for major capital projects • Design – project management and hiring engineering consultant(s) to design the project (may include work to complete tender preparation) • Construction – occurs when the project design has been completed, a tender awarded and a contractor hired to build the project October 2019 | Page 1 Glossary @ ...................................................................

Analysis of these two periods has indicated that streamflow in the month of April has remained constant while mean flows in the other months have significantly decreased in the more recent period.

  • Histology and Ontogeny of Pachyrhinosaurus Nasal Bosses By
    Histology and Ontogeny of Pachyrhinosaurus Nasal Bosses by Elizabeth Kruk A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Systematics and Evolution Department of Biological Sciences University of Alberta © Elizabeth Kruk, 2015 Abstract Pachyrhinosaurus is a peculiar ceratopsian known only from Upper Cretaceous strata of Alberta and the North Slope of Alaska. The genus consists of three described species Pachyrhinosaurus canadensis, Pachyrhinosaurus lakustai, and Pachyrhinosaurus perotorum that are distinguishable by cranial characteristics, including parietal horn shape and orientation, absence/presence of a rostral comb, median parietal bar horns, and profile of the nasal boss. A fourth species of Pachyrhinosaurus is described herein and placed into its phylogenetic context within Centrosaurinae. This new species forms a polytomy at the crown with Pachyrhinosaurus canadensis and Pachyrhinosaurus perotorum, with Pachyrhinosaurus lakustai falling basal to that polytomy. The diagnostic features of this new species are an apomorphic, laterally curved Process 3 horns and a thick longitudinal ridge separating the supraorbital bosses. Another focus is investigating the ontogeny of Pachyrhinosaurus nasal bosses in a histological context. Previously, little work has been done on cranial histology in ceratopsians, focusing instead on potential integumentary structures, the parietals of Triceratops, and how surface texture relates to underlying histological structures. An ontogenetic series is established for the nasal bosses of Pachyrhinosaurus at both relative (subadult versus adult) and fine scale (Stages 1-5). It was demonstrated that histology alone can indicate relative ontogenetic level, but not stages of a finer scale. Through Pachyrhinosaurus ontogeny the nasal boss undergoes increased vascularity and secondary remodeling with a reduction in osteocyte lacunar density.

  • Millet – Pipestone Creek and Tributaries – Flood Hazard Study – Summary
    Flood Hazard Identification Program Millet – Pipestone Creek and Tributaries – Flood Hazard Study – Summary Community Town of Millet County of Wetaskiwin No. 10 Stream Pipestone Creek Unnamed Tributary Streams Basin Battle River – 5F This study delineates flood hazard areas and determines design flood levels along Pipestone Creek and two unnamed tributaries through Millet. The primary tributary flows directly into Pipestone Creek while the secondary tributary drains into the primary one. The study area includes an approximate 10 km reach of Pipestone Creek and a combined 4 km tributary stream length. The design discharge for Pipestone Creek downstream of the primary tributary confluence is 39.6 m³/s. The design discharges for Pipestone Creek and the primary tributary upstream of their confluence are 21.6 m³/s and 17.1 m³/s respectively. The design discharges for the primary and secondary tributaries upstream of their confluence are 16.5 m³/s and 0.6 m³/s respectively. The Pipestone Creek watershed is located within the eastern Alberta plains. Within the study area, the most severe flooding generally occurs in spring as a result of snowmelt runoff, but heavy summer rainfall events can also produce relatively high water levels. High flows are most likely to occur in April or July. A digital representation of the flood hazard maps prepared as part of this study can be viewed online. • Millet Flood Hazard Mapping For more information regarding specific flood hazards in your community, please contact Alberta Environment and Parks by email at [email protected].
