  • The Little Bow Gets Bigger – Alberta's Newest River
    ALBERTA WILDERNESS Article ASSOCIATION Wild Lands Advocate 13(1): 14 - 17, February 2005 The Little Bow Gets Bigger – Alberta’s Newest River Dam By Dr. Stewart B. Rood, Glenda M. Samuelson and Sarah G. Bigelow The Little Bow/Highwood Rivers Project includes Alberta’s newest dam and provides the second major water project to follow the Oldman River Dam. The controversy surrounding the Oldman Dam attracted national attention that peaked in about 1990, and legal consideration up to the level of the Supreme Court over federal versus provincial jurisdiction and the nature and need for environmental impact analysis. A key outcome was that while environmental matters are substantially under provincial jurisdiction, rivers involve fisheries, navigation, and First Nations issues that invoke federal responsibility. As a consequence, any major water management project in Canada requires both provincial and federal review. At the time of the Oldman Dam Project, three other proposed river projects in Alberta had received considerable support and even partial approval. Of these, the Pine Coulee Project was the first to advance, probably partly because it was expected to be the least controversial and complex. That project involved the construction of a small dam on Willow Creek, about an hour south of Calgary. A canal from that dam diverts water to be stored in a larger, offstream reservoir in Pine Coulee. That water would then be available for release back into Willow Creek during the late summer when flows are naturally low but irrigation demands are high. Pine Coulee was generally a dry prairie coulee and reservoir flooding did not inundate riparian woodlands or an extensive stream channel.

  • Sediment Fingerprinting in the Lower Little Bow River Using Cs-137 As a Tracer
    Melody Caron et al. Sediment fingerprinting in the Lower Little Bow River Sediment fingerprinting in the Lower Little Bow River using Cs-137 as a tracer Melody Caron Department of Soil Science, University of Manitoba David A. Lobb Department of Soil Science, Watershed Systems Research Program, University of Manitoba Jim J. Miller Lethbridge Research and Development Centre, Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada Kui Liu Department of Soil Science, University of Manitoba Phillip N. Owens Environmental Science Program, University of Northern British Columbia The Lower Little Bow River watershed is a source of irrigation water for southeast Alberta. However, sediment in the river can be detrimental to both irrigation pump equipment and the health of the river. In order to understand and manage how sedi- ment moves through a watershed, a study of sediment sources was conducted along a reach of the Lower Little Bow River employing fingerprinting techniques. The radionuclide cesium-137 was used as a tracer to determine whether the sediment in the river is being generated by surface or subsurface erosion processes. The main sources of sediment were found from subsur- face erosion of an irrigation return-flow channel, coulee walls, and the river’s stream banks. This demonstrates that subsurface erosion is the principle generator of sediment in the Lower Little Bow. Through measurement of multiple points along the reach, the study also determined that the composition of the suspended sediment load did not change as it moved downstream in the river. Keywords: soil erosion, sedimentation, sediment fingerprinting, cesium-137, irrigation, Alberta Introduction tion, where an increase in nutrient concentration causes exces- The sources of suspended sediments in watersheds can be identi- sive algal growth on the surface of water (Barthod et al.

  • The 2013 Flood Event in the Bow and Oldman River Basins; Causes, Assessment, and Damages
    The 2013 flood event in the Bow and Oldman River basins; causes, assessment, and damages John Pomeroy1, Ronald E. Stewart2, and Paul H. Whitfield1,3,4 1Centre for Hydrology, University of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, SK, S7N 5C8. Phone: (306) 966-1426, Email: [email protected] 2Department of Environment and Geography, University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, MB, R3T 2N2 3Department of Earth Science, Simon Fraser University, Burnaby, BC, V5A 1S6 4Environment Canada, Vancouver, BC, V6C 3S5 Event summary In late June 2013, heavy rainfall and rapidly melting alpine snow triggered flooding throughout much of the southern half of Alberta. Heavy rainfall commenced on June 19th and continued for three days. When the event was over, more than 200 mm and as much as 350 mm of precipitation fell over the Front Ranges of the Canadian Rocky Mountains. Tributaries to the Bow River including the Ghost, Kananaskis, Elbow, Sheep, Highwood, and many of their tributaries all reached flood levels. The storm had a large spatial extent causing flooding to the north and south in the Red Deer and Oldman Basins, and also to the west in the Elk River in British Columbia. Convergence of the nearly synchronous floodwaters downstream in the Saskatchewan River system caused record high releases from Lake Diefenbaker through Gardiner Dam. Dam releases in Alberta and Saskatchewan attenuated the downstream flood peak such that only moderate flooding occurred in Saskatchewan and Manitoba. More than a dozen municipalities declared local states of emergency; numerous communities were placed under evacuation order in Alberta and Saskatchewan. More than 100,000 people needed to evacuate their homes, and five people died.

  • Cardston-Taber-Warner
    Alberta Provincial Electoral Divisions Cardston-Taber-Warner Compiled from the 2011 Census of Canada and National Household Survey Introduction This report presents the statistical profile for the Provincial Electoral Division (PED) of Cardston-Taber-Warner. This profile is based on the electoral boundaries as defined by the Alberta Electoral Divisions Act, Chapter E-4.2, 2010. A PED is a territorial unit represented by an elected Member to serve in the Alberta Provincial Legislative Assembly. Data in this report have been specially tabulated from Statistics Canada’s 2011 Census of Canada and the 2011 National Household Survey, by allocation of Statistics Canada block face reference points to PEDs. These data include the following characteristics: age, sex, marital status, household types, language, Aboriginal identity, ethnic origin, place of birth, mobility, dwelling characteristics, education, labour force activity and income. The global non-response rate (GNR) for the PED of Cardston-Taber-Warner is 32.4%. The GNR combines both complete non-response (household) and partial non-response (question) into a single rate. The GNR is an indicator of data quality, where a smaller GNR suggests more accuracy. When the GNR is 50% or above, the data are suppressed. The GNR is identified for each region. A higher GNR indicates the need for user caution. Users are advised to refer to the endnotes of this PED profile for further information regarding data quality and definitions. A map for this PED can be found at the end of the document. Should
