Verified records, from as far back as 1915, reveal that floods have occurred, and will continue to occur in the future, at anytime during any year. Their magnitude varies with the extent of snow cover, ambient air temperature, amount and duration of rainfall, direction and velocity of wind, pre-event soil conditions, etc. As the global climate changes, flooding may become more frequent and severe in the future. The Saugeen Valley Conservation Authority operates snow measuring courses, precipitation stations and automated river level recording gauges that assist in predicting the probability, height and time of arrival of a flood downstream. The Flood Warning System attempts to minimize the loss of life, property damage and social disruption through effective communication. Selected agencies and officials will be sent flood bulletins when flooding is anticipated. When notified, municipalities should distribute warnings, as quickly as possible to residents and businesses that may be at risk. As part of its water resources management program, the Saugeen Valley Conservation Authority remains committed to assisting municipalities with the design and construction of flood control structures in unprotected high risk areas. However, it must be remembered that such structures provide a limited degree of protection for specific locations. As long as watershed residents live and work in flood susceptible areas, an effective warning system must be in operation. The personnel and procedures detailed in this publication comprise the data collection and information dissemination components of the Saugeen Valley Conservation Authority’s flood warning and river forecasting system. Each official associated in any way with this system should be fully aware of his/her responsibilities and be prepared to make every possible effort to ensure its effectiveness. The Flood Warning System The system that is used by the Saugeen Valley Conservation Authority to communicate flood-related messages to affected residents within its jurisdiction serves two primary purposes. 1. The communications network enables the Authority to relay routine information concerning watershed river conditions to selected agencies and municipal officials. 2. It is also used to provide rapid, advance warning and technical support to concerned officials and to citizens whose lives and properties may be endangered by floodwaters. 3 The Flood Forecasting System – How It Works The system consists of an extensive network of data collection gauges strategically located throughout the basin, constantly monitoring factors that could potentially affect the amount of water entering the river system and the corresponding water levels. Information concerning the water content of the snow cover, present stream levels, intensity and duration of precipitation, wind speed, temperature and sunlight is recorded either manually or automatically and accessible on demand from the Forecast Centre. In addition, regular field inspections are made of river ice conditions throughout the watershed during the winter months. With this data, flood forecasting personnel operate a real time computer model for the Saugeen watershed that can predict the flood potential within the watershed. Coupled with analytical comparisons of up-to-date streamflow measurements and long range weather forecasts with past historical flood events, forecasting staff can estimate potential river levels and peak flow volumes and timing, as well as monitor the progression of a flood as it travels downstream through the river system. The other fundamental component of any emergency response system is relaying the essential information to all potentially affected parties and initiating an effective and coordinated response to the identified emergency. The primary purpose of this Flood Contingency Plan is to address this important element of public safety. Roles and Responsibilities of Participating Organizations A number of agencies, municipal departments and individuals bear responsibility, in varying degrees, for the efficiency of the flood warning system. These groups are identified in the following section. A more detailed outline of the responsibilities and functions of several of the organizations noted is contained within the Ontario Government publication, Planning for Flood Emergencies, distributed by the Ministry of Natural Resources. The SAUGEEN VALLEY CONSERVATION AUTHORITY has several areas of responsibility for flood emergencies: - Monitor watershed and weather conditions and operate a flood forecasting system in order to provide watershed residents with warning of anticipated or actual flood conditions; - Issue Flood Messages to municipalities and other appropriate agencies to advise of the potential of flooding; - Provide advice to municipalities in preventing or reducing the effects of flooding; - Maintain communications with municipalities and the Ministry of Natural Resources during a flood event. 4 POLICE: During a flood emergency, the police service of jurisdiction is responsible for carrying out rescue operations, obtaining necessary medical aid and maintaining law and order within affected areas as per that jurisdiction’s municipal emergency plan. RADIO, TELEVISION AND PRINT NEWS MEDIA SERVICES operating within the Authority’s jurisdiction provide the primary means of relaying flood-related information to affected residents. MUNICIPAL OFFICIALS are initially responsible for the welfare and protection of their residents from floods. It is crucial that each municipality establish a peacetime emergency plan, compatible with those of other agencies, which will assist officials with the orderly implementation of local resources. Authority assistance in the development of such plans is available upon request. MUNICIPAL RESIDENTS also have an obligation to safeguard their belongings to the best of their abilities after being duly warned of a flood danger. The MINISTRY OF NATURAL RESOURCES maintains the provincial streamflow forecast centre at the Surface Water Monitoring Centre in Peterborough, which advises the Authority of potential storm-producing weather patterns that may adversely affect watershed conditions. Through the local flood response co-ordinator (Owen Sound Area Supervisor for the Saugeen Watershed), the ministry directs and delivers the provincial response to a municipal request for assistance, when a flood emergency has escalated beyond the capabilities of local resources. 5 COMMUNICATING FLOOD MESSAGES The Communications Process During anticipated or actual flood events, the Saugeen Valley Conservation Authority is responsible for the operation of the Flood Forecast Centre, located within its Administrative Office in Formosa. When a Flood Advisory is in effect, the centre will be staffed during regular business hours (8:30am

  • Lower Main Saugeen Watershed
    Lower Main Saugeen Watershed CONSERVATION R E P O R T C A R D A report on the general condition of the Lower Main Saugeen Watershed 2013 Watershed Perspective 2007-2011 The Main Saugeen River downstream of Walkerton drains 908 square kilometres. This section of the river is 76 kilometres in length with an average gradient of 0.88 metres per kilometre. The main tributaries of the Lower Saugeen River include Mill Creek, Burgoyne Creek, Snake Creek, Vesta Creek, Pearl Creek, Deer Creek, Otter Creek, Willow Creek, and Silver Creek as well as numerous smaller unnamed streams. The watershed is predominantly agricultural but also includes the communities of Southampton, Mildmay, Paisley and Walkerton. The landscape is glacial in origin with the lower end of the watershed sand plain, clay plain and till plain. GRADES VERAGE A itions rest Cond Fo s D ondition etland C W ality B ater Qu urface W C S ality water Qu A Ground Surface Water Quality The Lower Main Saugeen River scores an average grade of 'C' for surface water quality, the same as the last report card. The average total phosphorus concentration is now below the provincial water quality objective of 0.03 mg/L and has improved from a 'C' to a 'B' grade. E. coli continues to fall below the recreational guidelines of 100 CFU/100mL maintaining a 'B' grade. The grade for benthic invertebrates, however, dropped from a 'C' to a 'D'. Changes in the benthic invertebrate community are seen as early indicators of deterioration in water quality that might not be seen in the chemistry results.

  • Saugeen River Truax Dam Removal 2020 Monitoring Summary
    Truax Dam Removal Monitoring on the Saugeen River - 2020 Update Report - In a partnership between Bruce Power, the Lake Huron Fishing Club Aug 14, 2019 and the Municipality of Brockton, and with expert direction from GSS Engineering Consultants Ltd., the century-old Truax Dam in the Town of Walkerton, ON was successfully removed in 2019, thereby reducing safety concerns with the ageing structure and eliminating a major barrier to fish passage in the Saugeen River (Figure 1). Although the dam had a fishway that allowed some migrating salmonids to pass under specific flow conditions, the large concrete structure was impassible by other community fish species. Opening up the Saugeen Aug 19, 2019 River at Walkerton will provide fish the opportunity to access high- quality upstream habitat. For trout and salmon species that migrate up the Saugeen each fall and spring, they will not be delayed or blocked any longer by the dam and they will not suffer physical stress and injury from repeatedly trying to jump over the tall concrete barrier. Scientists from Bruce Power and Biotactic Inc. teamed up with Sep 04, 2019 support from Golder Associates to design a Before-After-Control- Impact study of the Truax Dam removal to monitor the effects of this dam removal and to quantify the environmental benefits to the Saugeen River fishery. Twenty-two sampling locations were established throughout the Saugeen River watershed (Figure 2), and two years of baseline data were collected in 2018 & 2019 before the dam was removed in Aug 2019 (Figure 1). A high-level summary of these data is shown in the following pages along with data collected Figure 1 – Truax Dam, Walkerton, ON.
