  • 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.
