Kovacs, Associate Planner Report & Research: Lynda Paterson, Research Officer Michael Luco, Research Officer Published by OLDMAN RIVER REGIONAL PLANNING COMMISSION October, 1975 FOREWORD In December, 1974, the Preliminary Regional Plan for the Oldman River Region was approved by the Provincial Planning Board. The Plan con­ tains guidelines and policies for the development and betterment of the Oldman River Region. Among other things, the Plan established that a com­ prehensive plan for outdoor recreation and open space facilities is required for the Region and that such a plan should be consistent with municipal, provincial and federal objectives. This report entitled, Oldman River Region — Regional Lakes Perspective 1. Inventory is the first stage of an evolving regional plan for out­ door recreation and open space. It contains a summary of relevant data nec­ essary for management planning of our region's lake resources. This inventory was made possible through assistance provided by the Land Use Forum's Technical Committee on Lakes and Lake Shorelands and methodologies developed by its participating agencies. This inventory on lakes also forms part of the survey phase of the Southern Alberta Recreation Enhancement Study set up through Alberta Environment to assess and enhance water based recreation in Southern Alberta.

A Socio-Economic Evaluation of Sportsfishing Activity in Southern Alberta Interim Project Report INTROI)UCTION Recreational fishing is one of the most important recreational activities in Alberta. The report on Sports Fishing in Alberta, 1985, states that over 340,000 angling licences were purchased in the province and the total population of anglers exceeded 430,000. Approximately 5.4 million angler days were spent in Alberta and over $130 million was spent on fishing related activities. Clearly, sportsfishing is an important recreational activity and the fishery resource is the source of significant social benefits. A National Angler Survey is conducted every five years. However, the results of this survey are broad and aggregate in nature insofar that they do not address issues about specific sites. It is the purpose of this study to examine in detail the characteristics of anglers, and angling site choices, in the Southern region of Alberta. Fish and Wildlife agencies have collected considerable amounts of bio-physical information on fish habitat, water quality, biology and ecology.

Sport fish in the lake include northern pike, yellow perch, and lake whitefish. There are a unique mix of land uses in the lake watershed, which include undisturbed bush and forest, agriculture, two coal mines with active and reclaimed areas, three coal-fired power plants, major transportation (road and rail) corridors, residences, and recreation. The mines supply fuel for the power plants, operated by the TransAlta Utilities Corporation (TAU). Industrial wastewaters, runoff and cooling water from the Whitewood mine and Wabamun power plant are discharged to the lake. Over time, TAU operations associated with the mines and power plants in the watershed have caused cumulative and ongoing impacts on the lake level.
