  • Characterizing the Flow Regime in Brook Trout (Salvelinus Fontinalis) Incubation Habitats and the Implications for Management in a Hydro-Regulated River
    Characterizing the flow regime in Brook Trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) incubation habitats and the implications for management in a hydro-regulated river by Stephen Slongo A Master’s thesis presented in Partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Forestry Faculty of Natural Resources Management Lakehead University Thunder Bay, Ontario January 2018 1 Abstract Hydropower accounts for more than one third of Ontario Power Generation’s electrical production. Hydroelectric development often occurs on rivers that also support recreational fisheries. The construction and operation of dams, diversions and generating facilities unavoidably influence the ecological function of rivers. The Aguasabon River is a northern Canadian Shield river with major developments for water diversion, storage, and power generation. This river offers opportunity to examine the importance of vertical flows through the substrate at a Brook Trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) spawning area. The vertical and horizontal hydraulic gradients and subsequent water temperature changes are the subject of this study. Piezometers were used to monitor the river and subsurface water levels near Brook Trout redds during the spawning and incubation period under normal and increasing discharge conditions. The Brook Trout spawning area in the Aguasabon River experienced upwelling conditions for the entire monitoring period (Oct 28th, 2016 – Jan 13th, 2017) before water release at the Long Lake Control Dam (LLCD). Hyporheic temperatures declined gradually, remaining >3.7 °C. The river temperature in the winter before water release was 1.5 °C. Rapid increase in water level after discharge from above the LLCD resulted in the reversal of flow in the hyporheic zone.

  • Appendix F Environmental Features
    Appendix F Environmental Features YELLOW FALLS HYDROELECTRIC PROJECT APPENDIX F Note Prior to the release of the Draft EA, the Project was referred to as the Island Falls Hydroelectric Project. Following release of a draft environmental assessment report for review by First Nations, agencies, and members of the public, numerous comments were received. As a direct result of agency and public consultation, YFP made a decision to relocate the Project two kilometres upstream of Island Falls to Yellow Falls. Accordingly, the Project name has changed to the “Yellow Falls Hydroelectric Project” and the Project nameplate capacity has changed from 20 MW to 16 MW. The following Environmental Features report details existing natural and socioeconomic conditions and was prepared for the Island Falls location. Project relocation has not appreciably altered descriptions of existing natural and socioeconomic conditions. The Yellow Falls Project location has been provided on figures to indicate how the revised location corresponds with existing natural and socioeconomic environmental features.

    MAMOWENCHIGE ‘WORKING TOGETHER’ October 22-25, 2019 Boozhoo Welcome to the Mamowenchige “Working Together” Conference. This conference has been developed through the G’minoomaadozimin initiative. G’minoomaadozimin means We are Living Well. It is a Health and Safety program that envisions communities where all people are safe whether they are at home, in the workplace or in the community. Over the next four days we will be discussing ideas that improve the health, safety and wellness within our communities. For the first two days, conference presenters will speak on how communities can address lateral violence and harassment as well as the importance of cultural safety at work and for the overall safety for our community members. The final two days will be training for Spirit Builders. Our Spirit Builder Training has become a positive force of traditional values and teachings, knowledge exchange and has brought an awareness forward that can only be described as a healthy and honest conversation. We pride ourselves on the content of the Our Journey Away from Lateral Violence Training Program and look forward to sharing this inspiring knowledge with as many people as possible. Through the Mamowenchige “Working Together” Conference, Nokiiwin hopes to bring forward ideas and best practices from across Canada from an Indigenous perspective that will help everyone to live well in their own way. Thank you for taking the next four days to learn and to share this journey with us. 01 Floor Map Event Rooms Second Floor Balcony Pointe Du Meuron First Floor Room Amethyst Room Catering Admin Washrooms Office Office Elevator Banquet Office Storage Room Elevator Kaministiquia Room Wash Wash Mc Gillivrary room room Kitchen Room Sundeck Rock Garden Café & Bar McKenzie A McKenzie B Fire Balcony 02 Day 1 October 22, 2019 Kamanistiquia Room Amethyst Room Pointe Du Meuron 7:30 a.m.
