Brazeau Subwatershed
5.2 BRAZEAU SUBWATERSHED The Brazeau Subwatershed encompasses a biologically diverse area within parts of the Rocky Mountain and Foothills natural regions. The Subwatershed covers 689,198 hectares of land and includes 18,460 hectares of lakes, rivers, reservoirs and icefields. The Brazeau is in the municipal boundaries of Clearwater, Yellowhead and Brazeau Counties. The 5,000 hectare Brazeau Canyon Wildland Provincial Park, along with the 1,030 hectare Marshybank Ecological reserve, established in 1987, lie in the Brazeau Subwatershed. About 16.4% of the Brazeau Subwatershed lies within Banff and Jasper National Parks. The Subwatershed is sparsely populated, but includes the First Nation O’Chiese 203 and Sunchild 202 reserves. Recreation activities include trail riding, hiking, camping, hunting, fishing, and canoeing/kayaking. Many of the indicators described below are referenced from the “Brazeau Hydrological Overview” map locat- ed in the adjacent map pocket, or as a separate Adobe Acrobat file on the CD-ROM. 5.2.1 Land Use Changes in land use patterns reflect major trends in development. Land use changes and subsequent changes in land use practices may impact both the quantity and quality of water in the Subwatershed and in the North Saskatchewan Watershed. Five metrics are used to indicate changes in land use and land use practices: riparian health, linear development, land use, livestock density, and wetland inventory. 5.2.1.1 Riparian Health 55 The health of the riparian area around water bodies and along rivers and streams is an indicator of the overall health of a watershed and can reflect changes in land use and management practices.

Water Supply Outlook Overview
Water Supply Outlook Overview For Immediate Release: August 10, 2006 Mountains and foothills receive little rain since mid-June From mid-June through July, precipitation in most mountain and foothill areas of Alberta has ranged from 20 to 60% of normal. As a result, natural runoff volumes measured in July were generally below to much below average, ranking among the second to 25th lowest in 91 years of record. Inflows to the Bighorn Reservoir were average. Total natural runoff volumes so far this year (March through July 2006) have also been much below average at Banff, Edmonton, and the Brazeau Reservoir, and below to much below average in the Red Deer River basin and at the Cascade Reservoir. Volumes are below average in the Milk River basin and most of the rest of the Bow River basin (average to above average at the Spray Reservoir), average in most of the Oldman River basin, and above average at the Bighorn Reservoir. For August through September 2006, natural runoff volumes are forecast to be below average to average in the Oldman River basin, below average in the Bow and Milk River basins, and below to much below average in the Red Deer and North Saskatchewan River basins. Total natural runoff volumes for the water year (March to September 2006) are expected to be below average to average in the Oldman River basin, below average in the Bow and Milk River basins, below to much below average in the Red Deer River basin, and much below average in the North Saskatchewan River basin.

Pigeon Lake Watershed Management Plan
Pigeon Lake Watershed Management Plan This management plan has been adopted by the municipalities listed below, whose councils have each passed the following resolution: Council, having read and considered the Pigeon Lake Management Plan, resolves as follows: 1. to refer proposed major developments within [the municipality] to other municipalities as set out in the plan, 2. to consider the effect on the lake as a whole, and on other municipalities around the lake, before approving any development in the Pigeon Lake watershed, and 3. to use the policies set out in the Management Plan as a guide when making any decision affecting the Pigeon Lake watershed. Municipality Date of adoption Leduc County 11 January 2000 County of Wetaskiwin 08 February 2000 SV of Argentia Beach 29 February 2000 SV of Crystal Springs 15 April 2000 SV of Grandview 22 March 2000 SV of Golden Days 14 March 2000 SV of Itaska Beach 16 March 2000 SV of Ma-Me-O Beach 18 April 2000 SV of Norris Beach 14 March 2000 SV of Poplar Bay 20 April 2000 SV of Silver Beach 04 May 2000 SV of Sundance Beach 23 March 2000 1 PART ONE: TECHNICAL BACKGROUND In the spring of 1997, the two counties and ten summer villages bordering Pigeon Lake, organized as the Association of Pigeon Lake Municipalities (APLM), agreed to fund a study of lake water quality. The purpose was to find out if increasing onshore development had resulted in changes to water quality since the previous 1983 study by Hardy Associates, and how development in the drainage basin should be handled to preserve the recreational value of the lake.

Prepared For
Volume 5D, ESA – Trans Mountain Pipeline ULC Socio-Economic Technical Reports Trans Mountain Expansion Project Traditional Land and Resource Use Technical Report An Elder reported that he and fellow Ermineskin Cree Nation community members once fished for whitefish, pickerel, perch, rainbow trout, pike and bull trout in Wabamun Lake. However, due to an oil spill in 2005, the water quality is now poor and fishing is not ideal. The fish are small and are believed to be unhealthy due to pollution. Although Ermineskin Cree Nation community members do not travel to the lake to fish, community members from nearby bands still report it to be an important fishing site. Community members report that some of their past fishing sites are no longer used. An Elder identified Pigeon Lake as a fishing site (Plate 5.1.7-1). Most fishing takes place at the south end of the lake. Historically, net fishing has been conducted. Community members reported that Buck Lake was the best spot to catch whitefish in the past. Chimney Creek, near Kootenay Plains, was also a known fishing site, now used for grazing livestock and not often used by Ermineskin Cree Nation members. A cabin was once situated there. Plate 5.1.7-1 Pigeon Lake from helicopter overflight.
