    TABLE OF CONTENTS Transmittal Letter . 3 Area Map . 4-5 Plan Development . 6 Stakeholders . 8 Study Area . 9 The Aquifer . 12 Aquifer Issues . 20 Options Considered . 23 Draft Plan Distribution, Public Participation & Input . 26 Recommended Action Plans . 27 Action Plan Implementation . 29 Aquifer Facts & Equivalents of Measure . 31 Summary of Action Plan Goals & Objectives . 32 Logo: the ADA logo derives from the triangular symbol ∆ which is the capital form of the fourth letter of the Greek alphabet--delta. A delta is the triangular-shaped deposit of sediments that build up at the mouth of a river as it flows into a body of water. ∆ is used in mathematics and physics to mean 'change'. The flow velocity of a river changes [slows] dramatically as it reaches a lake--resulting in deltaic deposits of gravel, sand and silt. In a broader context, changes and/or improvements in understanding the aquifer and how it should be managed are the ultimate goals of this aquifer management planning process. The blue and beige colours (darker and lighter shades) within the triangle represent the water and deposits that comprise the aquifer. The vertical blue line extending below the triangle represents the wells that are drilled into the aquifer. The horizontal blue line represents the streams that flow across and through the aquifer. Cover: Aerial view of Devils Punchbowl in Spruce Woods Provincial Park (March 31, 2004). Water seeps from the aquifer, fills the bowl (foreground) and feeds a small, tree-lined stream that flows to the Assiniboine River. Planning for the future of the Assiniboine Delta Aquifer Letter of Transmittal May 2005 Honourable Steve Ashton Minister, Manitoba Water Stewardship Dear Minister: On behalf of our 45-agency, 43-member Round Table of stakeholder representatives, I am pleased to transmit this management plan for the Assiniboine Delta Aquifer.
