June 2013, parts of southern Alberta were devastated from significant flooding. The Government of Alberta responded to this catastrophe with a number of new programs, and funding to address a wide range of flood recovery activities. Programs were focused on the four essential elements of the Provincial Recovery Framework: People, Economy, Reconstruction and Environment. Directly linked to the Environment element of the Recovery Framework, Alberta Environment and Sustainable Resource Development (ESRD, now Alberta Environment and Parks), lead the development of a $10 million program to address impacts to fish and fish habitat as a result of the 2013 and 2014 flood events including impacts associated with recovery work. The new Southern Alberta Fisheries Habitat Enhancement and Sustainability (FISHES) Program aims to mitigate the flood related effects on fish and fish habitat in the short term and to re-establish a healthy aquatic environment over the longer term. As Albertans work through the stages of recovery, extensive reconstruction and revitalization of flood affected areas will be ongoing. There is a large amount of work to be done in and around waterbodies to deal with flood-related damage including: restoring/repairing infrastructure, removing debris, repairing erosion damage and mitigating against future flood events. In response to the significant number of applications from municipalities, local authorities and individual Albertans for authorization to proceed with flood recovery activities, ESRD also implemented an “Expedited Authorization Process for 2013/2014 Flood Recovery Projects”, or EAPFR. The intent of the EAPFR is to streamline the application, referral, and issuance processes for authorizations issued by ESRD under the Water Act and Public Lands Act related to flood recovery activities. This new process enables those affected by the floods to get on with recovery work as quickly as possible following the submission of their application. Managing and mitigating for impacts to the aquatic environment and fish habitat, resulting from these works, is required by provincial and federal policies and legislation. Where unavoidable damage to the aquatic environment and fish habitat has or will occur as a result of activities approved under provincial, or authorized under federal, legislation (e.g. Alberta Water Act, Alberta Public Lands Act, or Federal Fisheries Act.), off-setting or habitat compensation may also be required. 2.0 Background The area directly impacted

    December 20, 2010 Using water reservations to protect the aesthetic values associated with water courses: a note on the Spray River (Banff) By Nigel Bankes Documents commented on:: Order in Council 546\49; South Saskatchewan Basin Water Allocation Regulation, Alta. Reg. 307/1991 (rescinded by Bow, Oldman and South Saskatchewan River Basin Water Allocation Order, Alta. Reg. 171/2007); Alberta Environment, TransAlta Utilities (TAU) licence for the Spray River development. I have been doing some work on Crown water reservations over the last few months and in the course of that came across an example of what at first glance seemed to be the use of a water reservation to preserve the aesthetic qualities of a watercourse. The example also has an interesting constitutional twist that is worth reflecting on. When Alberta was created in 1905 it took its place in confederation without the ownership or administration and control of its natural resources, including water. Canada (the Dominion) continued to manage lands and resources in the province for the benefit of the national interest. That included using Dominion lands to encourage immigration, but it also included the creation, maintenance and expansion of national parks to encourage tourism and to protect spectacular landscapes. With the transfer of the administration and control of natural resources from Canada to Alberta in 1930 it was necessary to deal with retained federal lands. These lands included Indian reserves (about which there has been a lot of litigation over the years) and national parks (which have seen less litigation). I wrote about the constitutional status of national parks a good number of years ago: "Constitutional Problems Related to the Creation and Administration of Canada's National Parks" in J.O.
