This plan is necessary to protect and prepare our community from the climate changes that have already transpired, and those that will occur in the years to come. In the last 8 years Minden Hills has had to cope 50% of the time with spring flooding in our jurisdiction (2013, 2017 & 2019 emergency declarations, and 2016 almost a declaration) due to changing weather patterns and the ill effects that it has on our community. In living up to our municipal responsibilities in Minden Hills, initiatives such Lidar imaging, updated dam infrastructure, better operational communications with all levels of government, and municipal storm water management infrastructure have happened with the assistance of our neighbouring municipalities and both Federal and Provincial governments.

  • “Preferred Water Levels” Summary Report May 2017
    Coalition for Equitable Water Flow “Preferred Water Levels” on the Reservoir and Flow-Through Lakes in the Haliburton Sector of the Trent River Watershed Summary Report May 2017 PREFACE In 2011, the Coalition for Equitable Water Flow (CEWF or the Coalition) initiated a project to identify preferred water levels (PWLs) on the reservoir and flow-through (RaFT) lakes of the upper Trent River watershed during the navigation season with two main goals in mind: • first, to engage member lake associations in an exercise to document local (lake- specific) water level issues using measurable criteria; and • second, to compile this information for submission to the Trent Severn Waterway (TSW) as support for the inclusion of lake-specific constraints in a more sophisticated model for integrated water management at the watershed level. The Coalition believes that the identification of preferred water level ranges based on lake- specific constraints will increase the TSW’s understanding of the impact of their operations on waterfront property owners. The inspiration for this initiative is to be found in a 1973 Acres International Ltd. report, which considered a number of drawdown policies for the reservoir lakes. One approach was termed ‘equal percentage drawdown’; another was termed ‘equal damage drawdown’. At the time, Acres concluded that while ‘equal damage’ was the most equitable approach, it would be better to adopt ‘equal percentage drawdown’ due to insufficient damage data. It was noted that “eventually all the lakes may be able to be assessed individually for reaction to drawdown” so that an ‘equal damage’ approach might become possible. The Coalition believes that, after 40 years, that time has come, and in fact is an inherent part of a 2011 AECOM Water Management Study for Parks Canada, which recommended a constraint-based water management model that includes lake-specific data.

  • Flood Plain Mapping Study Burnt River
    Flood Plain Mapping Study Burnt River Final Report May 2019 Executive Summary The primary goals of this study are to create hydrologic and hydraulic models of the watershed and produce flood plain mapping for Burnt River from the outlet to Cameron Lake to the hamlet of Burnt River. The mapping will allow the City of Kawartha Lakes and Kawartha Conservation staff to make informed decisions about future land use and identify flood hazard reduction opportunities. The Burnt River Flood Plain Mapping Study was subject to a comprehensive peer review for core components: data collection, data processing, hydrologic modeling, hydraulic modeling, and map generation. The process was supported throughout by a Technical Committee consisting of technical/managerial staff from Ganaraska Conservation, the City of Kawartha Lakes, and Kawartha Conservation. Topics discussed in this study include: • Previous studies in the area • Collection of LiDAR, bathymetry and orthophoto data • Proposed land use • Delineation of hydrology subcatchments • Creation of a Visual OTTHYMO hydrology model for Regional (Timmins) Storm • Calculation of subcatchment hydrology model parameters • Derivation of flow peaks at key nodes along the watercourse • Flood Frequency Analysis for the 2, 5, 10, 25, 50 and 100 year events • Creation of a HEC-RAS hydraulic model • Creation of flood plain maps Key elements of this study include: • The Timmins storm is the Regulatory Event for the watercourse • Flood plain maps are to be created based on the highest flood elevation of the calculated water surface elevations Key recommendations of this study: • The maps created from the results of the HEC-RAS model for Burnt River Creek should be endorsed by the Kawartha Conservation Board.

  • Cobourg, for Example, and the Mem- Bers of the Family Compact at York, and Later, Toronto-Could Begin to Think of Recreational Needs on a More Sophisticated Level
    co THE SUMMER RESORTS OF ONTARIO IN THE NINETEENTH CENTURY By Roy 1. Wolfe I In the early decades of the nineteenth century, when settlement in Upper Canada was still in the frontier era, the back country, a few miles inland from the Lower Lakes, was still wilderness. This was pioneer country, and there could be as yet no thought of using land for recreation, 1 while the land itself had to be tamed. The rural settlers had two chief sources of enjoyment-liquor and religion. The former was in good supply (Anna Jameson in 1837 was struck by the vast number of taverns that lined the road between Toronto and Lake Simcoe) but it would be many years before there was a direct relation between liquor and the summer re~QJ Exactly the reverse was true of religion: if in recent years there seems to have been little connection between religion and the summer resort, in the beginning it was very close., The most enjoyable religious ceremony the settlers knew was the Methodist camp-meeting, which sup- plemented the work of itinerant preachers, and reached its fullest de- velopment in the 1820~s.The excitement of the camp-meeting, the hysteria and violent conversions/ had an emotional appeal that nothing else could bring to the barren lives of the isolated settlers. Not only the religious came, but those of few religious convictions,3 who derived enjoyment from the spectacle. Camp-meetings lasted as long as a week, and people stayed in tents at the camping-grounds, which thus came to have the appearance of many future summer resorts.

    SALERNO LAKE SENTINEL 2017 SPRING / SUMMER EDITION JUNE 2017 It’s about family, friends, community, relaxation, fun! Greetings After the winter of our discontent, of divisive politics, of deep ice encrusted snow and bitter cold, followed by a spring of endless rains and almost biblical plagues of mosquitoes and black-flies, we are now brightening our outlook. Summer is coming! The cottage roads are open again. Life is good. Welcome back to Salerno Lake (if you ever left….) Take a look at our SDLCA Events Calendar for this summer and mark the dates. There’s much to look forward to and it is our hope that you will participate. We have a terrific community here on Salerno Lake and you are an important part of it. The annual Canada Day Fireworks will be held this year on - gasp - Saturday July 1st, the actual Canada Day. That hap- pens only once every seven years… On July the 8th we have our very first Dock Sale AND our 7th Concert On The Lake at 6:30 PM featuring Kiyomi Valentine (McCloskey) a talented young woman who has a deep family connection to Salerno Lake. (Her sister Chloe was married here just last summer!) It’s also the summer of our 50th Annual Canoe Race, an incredible milestone in a long, storied tradition. And we will be holding the 2nd edition of the Youth Race for those 6-12 years of age. These events will be held on Sunday August 6th. The route of the Canoe Race is still to be determined due to the large log jam on the Irondale River.

  • Invading Species Awareness Program for Ontario 2009
    2009/10 Invading Species Awareness Program for Ontario Annual Report for 2009/10 INVADING SPECIES AWARENESS PROGRAM EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Invading Species Awareness Program The Invading Species Awareness Program (ISAP) has been a joint partnership initiative of the O.F.A.H. and the MNR since 1992; focusing on preventing invasive species introductions to Ontario’s forests and waters. In 2009, in collaboration with hundreds of community groups, nongovernment organizations and all levels of government, the ISAP reached hundreds of thousands of Ontarians engaging their participation in prevention. Hundreds of citizen scientists and professional field staff from numerous agencies participated in our monitoring and reporting programs. The ISAP made valuable contributions to early detection and rapid response initiatives for invasive species threatening Ontario’s biodiversity such as Asian carp, kudzu, European water chestnut, and water soldier. 2009 marked the successful completion of a multi‐year provincial effort to train the bait industry to implement aquatic invasive species prevention plans throughout their industry. The ISAP made significant contributions to provincial, national and international initiatives including the Ontario Invasive Plant Council, the U.S. Great Lakes Panel on Aquatic Nuisance Species and the Canadian Aquatic Invasive Species Network, and the development of the bi‐national Lake Superior Aquatic Invasive Species Prevention Plan. Partnerships In 2009, the O.F.A.H. and the MNR continued the successful joint delivery of the ISAP, with O.F.A.H. staff working collaboratively with staff from MNR’s Biodiversity Section, as well as numerous district offices around the province. Federally, funding contributions were made from Environment Canada’s Invasive Alien Species Partnership Program, and the Lake Simcoe Clean Up Fund, Fisheries and Oceans Canada, and Human Resources Development Canada’s Canada Summer Jobs Program and Eco‐Canada.
