G. and, Lawrie, D. 2004. Humber River Fisheries Management Plan. Published by the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority. i PREFACE A number of federal, provincial and regional strategies exist to guide watershed management and habitat protection and rehabilitation. At a federal level, the Toronto and Region Remedial Action Plan (RAP) was established in accordance with the Canada-United States Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement and identified the Toronto and Region Area of Concern (AOCs) as one of 43 AOCs around the Great Lakes. The Stage I RAP document identifies types and sources of water pollution problems, and outlines goals, remedial actions, agencies, costs, timetables and monitoring programs. Stage II provides a framework for guiding more local initiatives, such as fisheries rehabilitation. The Humber River Fisheries Management Plan (FMP) provides direction on three RAP goals and actions: Goal 2a) a self sustaining fishery Goal 2b) rehabilitation of fish and wildlife habitat Action 21) protect and restore fish and wildlife habitat Implementation of RAP recommendations, in conjunction with the recommendations of watershed based rehabilitation plans, will eventually lead to the delisting of watersheds within the Toronto and Region Area of Concern. Provincial fisheries management plans that set the context for the Humber River Fisheries Management Plan include the Strategic Plan for Ontario Fisheries (SPO F II) and the Maple District Fisheries Management Plan. SPOF II was prepared in consultation with the public and provides a basis for actions involving the public and private sectors. The overall goal of SPOF II is to achieve: "Healthy aquatic ecosystems that provide sustainable benefits, contributing to society's present and future requirements for a high-quality environment, wholesome food, employment and income, recreational activity and cultural heritage." SPOF II also provides objectives, guiding principles and strategic management actions to help resolve important issues. The Maple District Fisheries Management Plan (MDFMP) prepared by the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources also sets a context for the Humber River Watershed Fisheries Management Plan. Through the MDFMP, general strategies and tactics to achieve specific district goals are outlined. The Humber River Fisheries Management Plan establishes fisheries management direction consistent with federal and provincial objectives but provides additional details regarding specific project locatios, priorities and species management targets at a subwatershed level. Development of the Humber River FMP was guided by a steering committee made up of representatives from government agencies, non-government organizations (NGOs) and the public as well as comments from two rounds of public meetings. At the first round of public meetings many concerns and opportunities were expressed with regard to allowing increased access for migratory species into the watershed from Lake Ontario. These opinions were summarized and grouped into 12 categories which were then used as criteria to evaluate management options. ii These management options ranged from doing nothing to unrestricted access for all species. Following discussions with the Steering Committee a short list of options was developed. Using the decision criteria and an understanding of the fundamental characteristics and historic functions of the watershed, a preferred management option was selected. The preferred management option was presented to the public during the Round 2 public meetings and included the following: · mitigation of the Old Mill dam north of Bloor Street in Toronto to allow jumping species access upstream; · the removal/mitigation of dams upstream from the Old Mill dam to north of Regional Road 7 (formerly Highway 7) in Woodbridge; and · the mitigation of the Board of Trade Golf Course barrier in Woodbridge to selectively allow native and naturalized species access to the headwaters of the upper Humber River. Between 1998 and 2002, four dams have been completely modified and provide passage for all species of fish while six barriers have been partially modified. These partial modifications are considered short-term solutions that im prove access for species capable of jumping over obstacles, with longer term objectives being aimed at passage of all species to upstream habitats. The mitigation of additional upstream barriers, on-line ponds, and the implementation of other projects such as the revegetation of stream corridors and improvement of aquatic habitat forms the basis of this plan. iii EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The need for a watershed based fisheries management plan was recognized early in the development of Legacy: A Strategy for a Healthy Humber, 1997 (MTRCA). This fisheries management plan is a resource document to be used to develop and implement rehabilitation projects and as a tool to guide and influence where development occurs. The initial task for the Fisheries Management Plan was to establish baseline information on the condition of the fish community based upon historical conditions. Fish sampling records from as far back as 1948 as well as anecdotal information from historical references were compiled. In all, over 360 stations and more than 900 individual surveys were entered into a database. Seventy four species have been found in the watershed historically including species such as Atlantic salmon (extirpated), redside dace (provincially threatened and federally a species of special concern), largemouth bass and rainbow darter. Ten of the 74 historic species are introduced and exotic. In 2001, 43 fish species were captured including brook trout, rainbow trout, northern pike, common carp, pumpkinseed and mottled sculpin. Forty of the species captured are native. Analyses of the recent data indicates that the aquatic habitats in the rural areas of the Upper Main, East and West Humber River subwatersheds are generally in good condition while the more urbanized Black Creek and Lower Main Humber River subwatersheds are more degraded. The best and worst habitats are found in the smaller tributaries, suggesting these watercourses are more easily impacted than the larger tributaries. Further analysis indicates that the fish communities in many areas of the watershed lack fish- eating fish and sensitive species, suggesting degraded conditions. The distributions of the sensitive coldwater species found in the watershed, which include brook trout and mottled sculpin, are restricted to the Upper Main Humber River subwatershed and portions of the East and West Humber River subwatersheds. The physical conditions in the watershed vary from the headwaters on the Niagara Escarpment and Oak Ridges Moraine to the mouth on the Iroquois shoreline. Streams with no tributaries, or first order streams, make up almost half of the 1300 km of watercourses in the watershed. At the mouth, the Humber River is a sixth order stream with a drainage area of 908 km2. Stream slopes range from the almost flat river mouth area to some slopes greater than 5% in the headwaters. The coarse sands and gravels in the Niagara Escarpment area and the Oak Ridges Moraine allow little surface run-off and substantial groundwater discharge to many headwater streams, keeping water temperatures cold and flows stable. The clay soils found in the middle sections of the watershed have a much higher run-off potential and as a result stream temperatures and flows fluctuate more significantly throughout the year. The result of the variation in physical characteristics is a diversity of aquatic communities across the watershed. Over 20 large lakes and ponds and more than 600 smaller waterbodies are found throughout the watershed. The larger waterbodies, especially the deep kettle lakes, are oxygen deprived in the lower depths for part of the year. Many waterbodies are also high in nutrients and suspended particulates. Countless artificial ponds created as dugouts or by damming of a watercourse exist in the watershed. On-line ponds negatively impact the watercourse on which they are situated by allowing the water to warm excessively, halt the transport of sediment downstream by trapping it in the pond and obstructing fish movement. iv Over 110 instream barriers such as dams or weirs have been identified in the watershed, though many more exist. They have implications for water temperatures, river hydrology, flood control, bank erosion and fish passage. In the case of the Old Mill dam north of Bloor Street in Toronto, it also blocks the upstream migration of sea lamprey, an undesireable parasite that feeds on fish. Some of the dams built in the 1800’s also have a cultural significance due to their historical role associated with early European settlement. To date, fish barriers between Bloor and Dundas Streets and Raymore Park north of Eglinton Avenue in Toronto, and Doctors McLean Park and the Board of Trade Golf Course, both in Woodbridge, have been mitigated with the result that rainbow trout are now able to migrate from Lake Ontario into the East Humber River and its tributaries. Prior to these barrier mitigation projects, migratory salmon had been excluded from the East Humber River for more than

Having recently recommended to the Canadian Society for Civil Engineering that they increase their activities in heritage bridge conservation, I was happy to participate in this inventory project as such initiatives highlight the significant and often overlooked relationship between engineering advancements and our cultural heritage. Over time the widespread loss of heritage bridges has occurred for a variety of reasons: deterioration, changes in highway requirements, or damage by storms like Hurricane Hazel. Today, however, with increasing attention towards cultural heritage, creative solutions are being explored for preserving heritage bridges. Protecting, conserving and celebrating our heritage bridges contributes to not only a greater understanding of the development of approaches to modern day engineering but also marks our progress as a nation, from early settlement to today’s modern and progressive communities.

  • Lake Ontario a Voice!
    Statue Stories Chicago: The Public Writing Competition Give Lake Ontario a voice! Behind the Art Institute of Chicago, is the Fountain of the Great Lakes. Within the famous fountain is the wistful figure of Lake Ontario. She sits apart from her sister lakes, gazing into the distance with arms outstretched. But what does she have to say for herself? Write a Monologue! Monologos means “speaking alone” in Greek, but we all know that people who speak without thinking about their listener can be very dull indeed. Your challenge is to find a ‘voice’ for your statue and to write an engaging monologue in 350 words. Get under your statue’s skin! Look closely and develop a sense of empathy with the sculpture and imagine how it would feel. How does Lake Ontario feel about her sister lakes? Invite your listener to feel with you: create shifts in tempo and emotion, use different tenses, figures of speech and anecdotes, sensory details and even sound effects. Finding your sculpture’s voice? Write in the first person and adopt the persona of your character: What kind of vocabulary will you use - your own or that of another era/dialect? Your words will be spoken so read them aloud: use their rhythm and your sentence structure to convey emotion and urgency. Read great monologues for inspiration, for example Hamlet’s Alas Poor Yorick, or watch film monologues, like Morgan Freeman’s in The Shawshank Redemption. How will you keep people listening? Structure your monologue! How will you introduce yourself? With a greeting, a warning, a question, an order, a riddle? Grab and hold your listener’s attention from your very first line.

  • Rouge River Rouge River
    Rouge River State of the Watershed Report Surface Water Quantity Goal: Surface waters of a quantity, volume and naturally variable rate of flow to: $ protect aquatic and terrestrial life and ecological functions; $ protect human life and property from risks due to flooding; $ contribute to the protection of Lake Ontario as a domestic drinking water source; $ support sustainable agricultural, industrial, and commercial water supply needs; $ support swimming, fishing and the opportunity to safely consume fish; and $ contribute to the removal of Toronto from the Great Lakes list of Areas of Concern. Surface Water Quantity Key Findings: The Main Rouge subwatershed has been subject to significant urbanization with an approximate total impervious cover of 18% as of 2002. Several studies suggest that the maximum impervious cover that a watershed can withstand before experiencing severe hydrologic changes and consequent geomorphic and ecological impacts is approximately 10%. There has been significantly less urbanization in the Little Rouge subwatershed and impervious surfaces make up only 2% of the subwatershed area. As a result, hydrologic impacts and related effects are much less severe than on the Main Rouge River. Average annual flows in the Main Rouge River show a long-term increasing trend of over 1.3% per year in the past 40 years. This rate of increase is significantly greater than that on the Little Rouge River or nearby rural watersheds and is indicative of the effect of urbanization on the hydrologic cycle. The Rouge River has become flashy and now generates high flows in response to rainfall events that caused almost no response in the river prior to widespread development.

  • Historical Settlement
    HISTORICAL SETTLEMENT CHAPTER 3 The period of historical settlement in the Highland Creek watershed began in about 1650 when aboriginal populations first made contact with European explorers and settlers. A major landmark on the north shore of Lake Ontario, the Scarborough Highlands lent their name to the creek immediately below them from the beginning. Its Mississauga name of “Yat.qui.I.be.no.nick”, recorded in 1796, and all subsequent names reflect its geographical position as the first creek below the high land. Travellers going westward on the lake would often camp at the mouth of the Highland Creek rather than attempt a passage along the base of the Bluffs in darkness or bad weather. The following sections provide an overview of the historical period including contact between aboriginal and Euro-Canadian peoples, key characteristics of the successive periods of settlement, the impact of this settlement on the environment, and a summary of heritage resources found in the watershed. 3.1 CONTACT 1650 TO 1800 Following the decimation and ultimate dispersal of the Petun and Huron by the Iroquois in 1650, southern Ontario was uninhabited for a few years before the Iroquois moved into the area to establish a number of large villages along the north shore of Lake Ontario for the exploitation of the local fur resources. One such village was Ganatsekiagon, located on the Rouge River. No villages of this size and importance have been found in the Highland Creek watershed, but evidence shows that the resources of Highland Creek were used by the native peoples of these villages.

INCORPORATED 1850 Humber River Watershed Plan, 2008 ii HUMBER RIVER WATERSHED PLAN PATHWAYS TO A HEALTHY HUMBER EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Humber River watershed is an extraordinary resource. It spans 903 square kilometres, from the headwaters on the Niagara Escarpment and Oak Ridges Moraine down through fertile clay plains to the marshes and river mouth on Lake Ontario. The watershed provides many benefits to the people who live in it. It is a source of drinking water drawn from wells or from Lake Ontario. Unpaved land absorbs water from rain and snowfall to replenish groundwater and streams and reduce the negative impacts of flooding and erosion. Healthy aquatic and terrestrial habitats support diverse communities of plants and animals. Agricultural lands provide local sources of food and green spaces provide recreation opportunities.
