These special places make up one of the finest and most extensive systems of protected natural and cultural heritage areas in the world. The Government is committed to preserving our natural and cultural heritage, expanding the system of protected places and contributing to the recovery of species-at-risk. At the same time, we must continue to offer new and innovative visitor and outreach programs and activities so that more Canadians can experience Parks Canada places and learn about our environment, history and culture. This new management plan for Chambly Canal National Historic Site of Canada supports this vision. Management plans are developed through extensive consultation and input from various people and organizations, including Indigenous Peoples, local and regional residents, visitors and the dedicated team at Parks Canada. National parks, national historic sites and national marine conservation areas are a priority for the Government of Canada. I would like to thank everyone who contributed to this plan for their commitment and spirit of co-operation. As the Minister responsible for Parks Canada, I applaud this collaborative effort and I am pleased to approve the Chambly Canal National Historic Site of Canada Management Plan. Catherine McKenna Minister of Environment and Climate Change and Minister responsible for Parks Canada Chambly Canal v Management Plan RECOMMENDATIONS Recommended by: ________________________________ Michael Nadler Acting Chief Executive Officer Parks Canada ________________________________ Trevor Swerdfager Senior Vice-President, Operations Parks Canada ________________________________ Lauren Small Director Quebec Waterways Unit Parks Canada Chambly Canal vii Management Plan Executive Summary Located in the heart of the Montérégie area on the South shore of Montreal, the Chambly Canal National Historic Site was designated to be of national historic significance in 1929. Opened to navigation in 1843, this engineering infrastructure not only allowed commercial barges to bypass the Richelieu River rapids, it also significantly contributed to the development and the economic growth of adjacent municipalities. Today, the commercial barges have been replaced by recreational boaters, and the old towpath has been converted into a multi-use path that attracts more than 250,000 visitors and cyclists annually, making the Chambly Canal an important recreational tourism destination. The diversity of the site's historic components, such as the locks, including some that are still operated manually, as well as the archaeological remains of Fort-Sainte-Thérèse, a distinct national historic site, contribute to the richness and the identity of the Chambly Canal National Historic Site, one of the five (5) historic canals managed by Parks Canada in Quebec. Since 2015, significant investments have been made to improve the condition of the infrastructure and buildings of the Chambly Canal and maintain its physical integrity. These investments, representing approximately $50 million, are scheduled to continue until 2020. This Management plan replaces the 2007 plan and introduces the proposed vision for the site for the next ten years. While a number of the 2007 plan’s objectives have been accomplished, including identifying the location of Fort-Sainte-Thérèse, others are in the process of being carried out, such as the completion of significant rehabilitation work on the canal infrastructure and the proposal of a management strategy for all non-functional heritage bridges. The vision for the Chambly Canal National Historic Site is to promote its heritage and landscape, improve the visitor experience and increase the community’s sense of ownership and pride in the site. The development of Fort-Sainte-Thérèse as a distinct attraction along the Chambly Canal is also part of the proposed vision. Three (3) key strategies support the vision for management of the site over the next 10 years: Strategy 1: The Chambly Canal: Preserve and enhance its heritage and its cultural and natural landscape The goal of this strategy is to protect and promote, for the benefit of current and future generations, the built heritage, the surrounding environment and the cultural and natural landscapes of the Chambly Canal. This strategy is intended to ensure that the condition of the site’s historical components and the effort dedicated to their preservation reflect the importance of this engineering work. Two objectives support this strategy: Objective 1.1: The condition and integrity of the Canal's historic infrastructure are improved; Objective 1.2: The centres, sectors, cultural and natural landscapes of the Chambly Canal are further recognized and showcased. viii Strategy 2: An improved and diversified visitor experience from one end of the canal to the other This strategy is intended to improve the services and activities offered in order to enhance the visitor and recreational boater experience along the Chambly Canal. The improvement of visitor experience will be supported by the communities surrounding the canal and will result in an enhanced distribution of services, experiences and activities, to better meet the expectations of different clienteles and users. The objectives are the following: Objective 2.1: The service offer is better adapted to the needs of visitors and recreational boaters and better distributed according to the travel routes and destination sites Objective 2.2: New development plans, carried out in partnership with the adjacent municipalities, contribute to improving the attractiveness of the Chambly Canal Objective 2.3: The renewal of programs and activities enhance visitor experience. Strategy 3: A source of pride and benefits for the community Community pride in the Chambly Canal will contribute to its appreciation, while increasing a sense of belonging and interest in contributing to the site. The implementation of a strategy focused on partnerships, agreements and business opportunities with partners will enhance the site’s performance in terms of visitor experience, increase visitor loyalty and generate a positive impact on the surrounding communities. The following objective supports this strategy: Objective 3.1: The importance of the Chambly Canal is reflected in the level of commitment and ownership of the site by the local community The management plan suggests a targeted management approach for the Fort-Sainte- Thérèse National Historic Site. The recent discovery of the location of the archaeological remains of Fort-Sainte-Thérèse, on Fryer Island, requires the establishment of management guidelines to ensure its conservation and development for years to come. With the untapped potential of Fort-Sainte- Thérèse, the following objectives are put forward: • Recognize and promote the national historic value of the site • Protect and enhance Fryer Island’s exceptional natural setting • Make Fort-Sainte-Thérèse National Historic Site noticeable and accessible along the course of the Chambly Canal • Commemorate the history of the site through new interpretive activities.

In addition to compromising the snowmelt. structural integrity of the dams, mass releases would also endanger the very communities that these dams are built Because of its size, Lake Champlain can store a lot of to protect. water; the flood control dams and reservoirs in the basin, which are very small in comparison to the lake, do not When conditions force the release of more water than significantly change water levels of the lake and river as hydropower plants can handle, the increase in water they release water. levels immediately below the dam will be much greater than the increase on Lake Champlain. This is true even during high water and flooding events. Consider, for instance, when Lake Champlain and the Richelieu River experienced extreme flooding between April and June 2011, the additional releases flowing from Waterbury Reservoir—the largest flood control reservoir in the Vermont portion of the basin, contributed less than 2 centimetres (¾ inch) to the elevation of Lake Champlain and the upper Richelieu River.

A sharp and constant decline of annual landings since 1981 has been at least partly related to the rebuilding, in 1965, of an old cribwork. In 1997, a ladder was retrofitted on the 270-m Chambly Dam to allow eel migration and enhance recruitment. 1. Outline of the Project Chambly Dam is located on the Richelieu River, a tributary of the St. Lawrence near Montréal (Québec, Canada). It is a 270-m-long concrete overflow weir and the water head is approximately 5 m. It was built in 1965 to replace an old cribwork dam that was constructed in 1896. 2. Features of the Project Area The Richelieu River drains Lake Champlain, a large lake bordering New York and Vermont states (USA) and extending into Québec. Lake Champlain is connected to the Hudson River and to the Great Lakes by a network of locks and canals. The Richelieu River extends for 115 km between Lake Champlain and the St. Lawrence River. Figure 1 Location Map of the project From June to September, the average discharge is 271 m3/s (1937-1996) or about 3.5% of the St.

The quantity of hardware is indicated as 40 + 20 additional anchors (4 hardware kits are required for the attachment of the plant box).What is the exact amount of plant boxes for the project? Response: The quantities have been adjusted on the sheet C27 attached to this addendum. .2 QRT-11: Are there expansion joints provided in the coping wall? If so, what is their location and detail? Response: The details have been added to the plans attached to this addendum. .3 QRT-13: For the payment measure of 3,000 m² of sheet piles, you say that it will be measured after cutting-off, therefore excluding the 300 mm minimum cut-off strip. On the other hand, in the next sentence, you say that you will pay us only 300 mm of cut-off. The question is as follows: Should we consider an additional quantity of square metres to 3,000 m² to cover the cut-off strip or if the allowance for the cut-off strip is included in the 3,000 m²? Response: The quantities must include the cut-off strip. However, a maximum of 300 mm of cut- off is payable in the payment schedule, all as indicated in section 01 29 00.
