    Thunder Bay Native Fisheries Rehabilitation — Chronology of Development on the Current River Upper Great Lakes Management Unit – Lake Superior Miscellaneous Report 11-01 Revision 4 (August 2012) CHRONOLOGY OF DEVELOPMENT on the CURRENT RIVER AUTHOR Steven M. Bobrowicz Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources, Upper Great Lakes Management Unit, Lake Superior. 435 James Street South, Suite 221e, Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada, P7E 6S8 [email protected] Phone: (807) 475-1374 Cover image: Current River Falls, near Port Arthur, Ont. (postcard, c. 1910) DRAFT CITATION: Bobrowicz, S.M. 2011. Thunder Bay Native Fisheries Rehabilitation — Chronology of Development on the Current River. Upper Great Lakes Management Unit Miscellaneous Report 11-01. Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources, Thunder Bay, ON. 51 pp. 1 CHRONOLOGY OF DEVELOPMENT on the CURRENT RIVER INTRODUCTION The Current River (fr. Riviere aux Courants) is a large tributary which flows from its headwaters at Current Lake (N48o 37’ W89o 11’) 63 kilometres to Lake Superior at Thunder Bay, in the north end of the City of Thunder Bay (formerly Port Arthur). The river is characterized by a high gradient and numerous rapids, particularly in its lower reach; notwithstanding the current reservoir at Boulevard Lake (N48o 27’ W89o 11’) the final 10 kilometres of the Current River comprise a continuous set of falls and rapids culminating in Current River Falls, a 12m vertical drop over the final 650m of the river. Most of this area is currently protected through a series of municipal parks and conservation areas. Upstream of the Cascades Conservation Area (N48o 30’ W89o 13’), development along the river corridor includes residential properties, forest harvesting, and a large aggregate quarry; despite this, the upper reach of the Current River remains in a near-natural state.

  • Township of North Frontenac Official Plan
    Memorandum To: Township Council and Members of the Public From: Joe Gallivan, Director, Planning & Economic Development Re: Township of Central Frontenac Official Plan – Second Draft, Version 2 (July 19, 2019) Date Prepared: July 19, 2019 Background The Township of Central Frontenac commenced a review of the existing Official Plan in 2017. The current Plan was approved by the Ontario Ministry of Municipal Affairs in June, 2008. Since the time of approval a new Provincial Policy Statement was issued in 2014 and the County of Frontenac had its first Official Plan approved in 2016. It is important for the Township Official Plan to conform to both of these planning documents. First Draft Official Plan – Spring 2018 The first draft was reviewed by Township Council in May, 2018. Following receipt, a Public Open House was held in Sharbot Lake on Saturday, July 21st, 2018 with approximately seventy (70) residents in attendance. A number of issues were raised by citizens at the Open House: The future design of Highway 7 and the impacts at the Highway 7/Road 38 intersection; The need to ensure that the village of Sharbot Lake be sustainable in the future, and the potential negative impacts of a redesigned, four lane Highway 7; Lake protection; Special protection of White Lake which is the only source of water for the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (MNRF) fish culture station which has been operating since 1933; The future of the K&P Trail and in particular an interest in extending the trail north of Sharbot Lake using the right-of-way owned by the Township; Recognition of the proposal from VIA Rail to construct a high frequency passenger rail system from Toronto to Ottawa with a train stop at Sharbot Lake; The need for affordable housing in the community; Creation of gateways or signage to recognize Sharbot Lake; Environmental Protection – beyond lake protection, there should be consideration for headwaters protection and the need for a watershed protection approach.

  • Niagara River Greenway Habitat Conservation Strategy
    Niagara River Greenway Habitat Conservation Strategy Chapter 4 Municipal Action Plans The following Chapter details specific opportunities for habitat conservation and restoration for each municipality within the Greenway. Specific strategies included in the municipal recommendations relate directly to those described in Chapter 3. It should be noted that villages are combined with the towns in which they are located due to their size. The Tuscarora Reservation is excluded from the analysis due to the sovereign nature of their territory. The Village of Kenmore was also not included due to the fact that it is outside of the project area. 99 BUFFALO NIAGARA RIVERKEEPER 100 Niagara River Greenway Habitat Conservation Strategy 4.1 Town & Village of Lewiston Existing Conditions: The Town and Village of Lewiston are situated along the lower Niagara River immediately north of the City of Niagara Falls. Although these municipalities are less developed than most areas of the Greenway, they have experienced impacts from the construction of the Niagara Power Plant. For example, the Power Reservoir took a large area of town land and required the channelization and diversion of both Gill Creek and Fish Creek. Water level fluctuations from daily operation of the power plant have affected the shoreline and aquatic habitat along the riverfront. The Niagara Gorge is a significant feature in the town and village and can be appreciated in several state parks. Center Street in the Village of Lewiston marks the end of the Niagara Escarpment and transition to the Lake Ontario Plain. The Town of Lewiston also has great potential for protection of natural resources as it contains the third greatest acreage of natural area of all municipalities within the Greenway next to Grand Island and Wheatfield (2,406 acres in the town and 99 acres in the village).
