Water Storage Opportunities in the South Saskatchewan River Basin in Alberta
Water Storage Opportunities in the South Saskatchewan River Basin in Alberta Submitted to: Submitted by: SSRB Water Storage Opportunities AMEC Environment & Infrastructure, Steering Committee a Division of AMEC Americas Limited Lethbridge, Alberta Lethbridge, Alberta 2014 amec.com WATER STORAGE OPPORTUNITIES IN THE SOUTH SASKATCHEWAN RIVER BASIN IN ALBERTA Submitted to: SSRB Water Storage Opportunities Steering Committee Lethbridge, Alberta Submitted by: AMEC Environment & Infrastructure Lethbridge, Alberta July 2014 CW2154 SSRB Water Storage Opportunities Steering Committee Water Storage Opportunities in the South Saskatchewan River Basin Lethbridge, Alberta July 2014 Executive Summary Water supply in the South Saskatchewan River Basin (SSRB) in Alberta is naturally subject to highly variable flows. Capture and controlled release of surface water runoff is critical in the management of the available water supply. In addition to supply constraints, expanding population, accelerating economic growth and climate change impacts add additional challenges to managing our limited water supply. The South Saskatchewan River Basin in Alberta Water Supply Study (AMEC, 2009) identified re-management of existing reservoirs and the development of additional water storage sites as potential solutions to reduce the risk of water shortages for junior license holders and the aquatic environment. Modelling done as part of that study indicated that surplus water may be available and storage development may reduce deficits. This study is a follow up on the major conclusions of the South Saskatchewan River Basin in Alberta Water Supply Study (AMEC, 2009). It addresses the provincial Water for Life goal of “reliable, quality water supplies for a sustainable economy” while respecting interprovincial and international apportionment agreements and other legislative requirements. -

SOURCE WATER QUALITY PRIMER Red Deer River Municipal Users Group October 2016
SOURCE WATER QUALITY PRIMER Red Deer River Municipal Users Group October 2016 SOURCE WATER QUALITY PRIMER Red Deer River Municipal Users Group October 2016 This report was written by Bill Shaw, FCIP, RPP of BPS Consulting Ltd for the Red Deer River Municipal Users Group. The cover photograph is the North Raven River, a tributary of the Raven River which is a tributary of the Red Deer River. The restoration and protection of the riparian lands along this famous trout stream is one of Alberta’s most successful riparian management programs. It was accomplished through the efforts of the Alberta Government (at the time Fish and Wildlife), Clearwater County and the many cooperating landowners and farmers along the stream.

Environmentally Significant Areas of Alberta Volume 2 Prepared By
Environmentally Significant Areas of Alberta Volume 2 Prepared by: Sweetgrass Consultants Ltd. Calgary, AB for: Resource Data Division Alberta Environmental Protection Edmonton, Alberta March 1997 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Large portions of native habitats have been converted to other uses. Surface mining, oil and gas exploration, forestry, agricultural, industrial and urban developments will continue to put pressure on the native species and habitats. Clearing and fragmentation of natural habitats has been cited as a major area of concern with respect to management of natural systems. While there has been much attention to managing and protecting endangered species, a consensus is emerging that only a more broad-based ecosystem and landscape approach to preserving biological diversity will prevent species from becoming endangered in the first place. Environmentally Significant Areas (ESAs) are important, useful and often sensitive features of the landscape. As an integral component of sustainable development strategies, they provide long-term benefits to our society by maintaining ecological processes and by providing useful products. The identification and management of ESAs is a valuable addition to the traditional socio-economic factors which have largely determined land use planning in the past. The first ESA study done in Alberta was in 1983 for the Calgary Regional Planning Commission region. Numerous ESA studies were subsequently conducted through the late 1980s and early 1990s. ESA studies of the Parkland, Grassland, Canadian Shield, Foothills and Boreal Forest Natural Regions are now all completed while the Rocky Mountain Natural Region has been only partially completed. Four factors regarding the physical state of the site were considered when assessing the overall level of significance of each ESA: representativeness, diversity, naturalness, and ecological integrity. -

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The North Raven River and Clear Creek are ecologically unique and environmentally sensitive spring-fed watercourses originating in Clearwater County. Given their sensitivity to surface and subsurface development and the over five decades of rehabilitation that has gone into protecting this system, it is imperative that this special area receives the permanent protection it so richly deserves. The springs feeding the North Raven River come from an alluvial sand and gravel channel connected to the Clearwater River. They are Meinzer Class III springs. Only a few Alberta springs are larger, most notably Maligne Canyon Springs. Both Miette Hot Springs and Banff Hot Springs are a couple of orders of magnitude smaller than the springs sustaining the North Raven River. -
