  • State of Lake Diefenbaker Report
    State of Lake Diefenbaker Prepared for: Consultation Meeting on May 30, 2012. Document was edited and revised on October 19, 2012 Executive Summary The purpose of this report is to provide the stakeholders with some context of the South Saskatchewan River project, the management issues associated with the operation of the Gardiner and Qu’Appelle River Dams, and the health of Lake Diefenbaker and the Lake Diefenbaker Watershed. This report summarizes the management activities associated with the operation of the South Saskatchewan River Project and the potential outcomes related to these management activities. Information within this report provides a basis for evaluating the management objectives and setting priorities for the operation of the Project. Table 1 outlines the various reservoir management activities and the resulting consequences of these activities. The South Saskatchewan River Project, of which Lake Diefenbaker and the Gardiner and Qu’Appelle River Dams are the primary components, is a critical water resource for the province of Saskatchewan. The South Saskatchewan River Project is currently owned and managed by the Water Security Agency of Saskatchewan for multiple services, including irrigation, municipal and industrial water supply, hydroelectric power generation, recreation, aquatic and wildlife habitat, and downstream flood control. The services provided by the Project are fundamental to the province’s economic, social and environmental well being. Lake Diefenbaker construction started after an agreement between the province of Saskatchewan and the Government of Canada, which was signed in 1958. The initial purpose of the project was to form a reservoir that could provide source water to irrigate approximately 200,000 hectares of farmland in central Saskatchewan and the Qu’Appelle Valley.
