Water Quality Report
Central Assiniboine Watershed Integrated Watershed Management Plan - Water Quality Report October 2010 Central Assiniboine Watershed – Water Quality Report Water Quality Investigations and Routine Monitoring: This report provides an overview of the studies and routine monitoring which have been undertaken by Manitoba Water Stewardship’s Water Quality Management Section within the Central Assiniboine watershed. There are six long term water quality monitoring stations (1965 – 2009) within the Central Assiniboine Watershed. These include the Assiniboine, Souris and Cypress Rivers. There are also ten stations not part of the long term water quality monitoring program in which some data are available for alternate locations on the Assiniboine, Souris, and Little Saskatchewan Rivers. The Central Assiniboine River watershed area is characterized primarily by agricultural crop land, industry, urban and rural centres. All these land uses have the potential to negatively impact water quality, if not managed appropriately. Cropland can present water quality concerns in terms of fertilizer and pesticide runoff entering surface water. There are a number of large industrial operations in the Central Assiniboine Watershed, these present water quality concerns in terms of wastewater effluent and industrial runoff. Large centers and rural municipalities present water quality concerns in terms of wastewater treatment and effluent. The tributary of most concern in the Central Assiniboine watershed is the Assiniboine River, as it is the largest river in the watershed. The area surrounding the Assiniboine River is primarily agricultural production yielding a high potential for nutrient and bacteria loading. The Assiniboine River serves as the main drinking water source for many residents in this watershed. In addition, the Assiniboine River drains into Lake Winnipeg, and as such has been listed as a vulnerable water body in the Nutrient Management Regulation under the Water Protection Act. -
History of U.S. Geological Survey Streamgaging on the Souris River in and Near Minot, North Dakota, 1903–2016
History of U.S. Geological Survey Streamgaging on the Souris River in and near Minot, North Dakota, 1903–2016 Introduction Water Commission, on the Souris River in and near Minot, N.

Cur- United States) originates in the Yellow Grass Marshes north of Weyburn, Saskatchewan, Canada, and flows southeast, cross- rently (2016), water availability is still important as well as the ing the northern boundary of North Dakota west of Sherwood, flood monitoring and forecasting that has become an important North Dakota. The Souris River then forms a loop and flows component of this gage. Gage-height and streamflow data for back north, entering Manitoba, Canada near Westhope, N. Dak., the Souris River in and near Minot have been collected at five eventually flowing into the Assiniboine River near Brandon, different streamgage locations (table 1, fig. 1). This fact sheet Manitoba (fig. 1). describes the history of streamgaging (locations, gage-height The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) began collecting data, and streamflow data) and flooding on the Souris River in streamflow data, in cooperation with the North Dakota State and near Minot since 1903. 101°24’ 101°21’ 101°18’ 101°15’ 101°12' SASKATCHEWAN 48°16’ MANITOBA 27TH Brandon 8TH Weyburn Souris River Basin Sherwood Westhope 44 11TH 11TH UNIVERSITY Study area Minot Broadway Bridge 4TH Main Street 4TH footbridge 11 NORTH DAKOTA COUNTY ROAD 17 55 16TH 2ND 6TH 48°14’ 3RD ¤£2 22 11TH MinotMinot ¤£2 ¤£52 Valker Bridge VALLEY 83 ¤£ 13TH 20TH 16TH SourisSouris RiverRiver 48°12’ EXPLANATION 37TH £ 33 55 U.S. -
