AUTHOR'S PREFACE This history has been appearing serially through the Lindsaj "Watchman-Warder" for the past eleven months and is now issued in book form for the first time. The occasion for its preparation is, of course, the one hundredth anniversary of the opening up of Victoria county. Its chief purposes are four in number: — (1) to place on record the local details of pioneer life that are fast passing into oblivion; (2) to instruct the present generation of school-children in the ori- gins and development of the social system in which they live; (3) to show that the form which our county's development has taken has been largely determined by physiographical, racial, social, and economic forces; and (4) to demonstrate how we may, after a scien- tific study of these forces, plan for the evolution of a higher eco- nomic and social order. The difficulties of the work have been prodigious. A Victoria County Historical Society, formed twenty years ago for a similar purpose, found the field so sterile that it disbanded, leaving no re- cords behind. Under such circumstances, I have had to dig deep.

  • State of the Wetlands in the Lake Simcoe Watershed Ontario Streams Technical Report No
    July 2018 State of the Wetlands in the Lake Simcoe Watershed Ontario Streams Technical Report No. 2018-01 Alexander Kissel, Habitat Technician & Alice Choi, GIS Technician, Ontario Streams ontariostreams.ca Summary Wetlands in the Lake Simcoe Watershed are critical to the health of the Lake and its surrounding ecosystem. They cover 18.4% of the surface area around the Lake or 52 847 hectares (ha). About 62.4% of these wetlands have been evaluated using the Ontario Wetland Evaluation System (OWES) Southern Manual. The distribution of wetlands vary with fewer and smaller wetlands on the Oak Ridges Moraine (7.1% of surface area), the Schomberg Clay Plains (5.5%) and the uplands west of the the Lake (10.9 to 12.7%), contrasting with the larger valley and shoreline wetlands in the lowlands around the Lake (25.7%). Small wetlands play an important role particularly in the landscapes where they make up a large portion of the wetlands. A high resolution (15 centimetre pixel) analysis of aerial imagery from 1999/2002 to 2013/2016 for the Lake Simcoe Watershed has shown that many small wetland losses, and the occasional larger ones, add up over this time period to a loss of almost eight square kilometres or 773 ha (1.5% of the total wetland area). This loss is higher than previous estimates using lower resolution (30-metre pixel) satellite imagery which cannot pick out the smaller losses that have a large cumulative impact. The highest losses have been from agriculture (46.4% of all losses), following in descending order by residential (10.5%), peat extraction (10.4%), canals (9.6%), highways/roads (6.6%), industrial/commercial (5.7%), fill (4.6%), dug-out ponds (4.3%), recreation (1.6%) and aggregates (0.3%).

  • Peterborough Campbellford Trent River Kingston Otonabee River Bay of Quinte Frankford Route 81 Rice Lake
    From an idea on a rented houseboat in 1981, Lloyd and Helen Ackert and their family created Ontario Waterway Cruises Inc. Success has flourished due largely to the personal interest and enthusiasm of a family operated business. In 1993, Lloyd and Helen retired. Two of their sons, Marc and John alternate as captain aboard ship. Marc/Robin and John/Joy share the various responsibilities of managing the business. Robin manages the hospitality functions and Joy manages reservations. The history of this successful cruise operation for older adults can be found in the ship’s library. Passengers enjoy browsing the albums which trace its development from the time that this former farm family from Bruce County first “put to sea”! Helen’s ten year legacy of ship’s menu and recipes has been printed in her cookbook, and is available to passengers on board ship. 2 3 OTTAWA RIVER OTTAWA LONG ISLAND RIDEAU RIVER BURRITTS RAPIDS RIDEAU MERRICKVILLE CANAL POONAMALIE BIG CHUTE SMITHS FALLS SEVERN RIVER PORT RIDEAU STANTON GEORGIAN LAKES BAY TRENT-SEVERN WATERWAY WESTPORT KAWARTHA LAKES ORILLIA ROSEDALE BOBCAYGEON BUCKHORN KIRKFIELD ST.

  • 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.
