  • Hay River Watershed Report Draft Final Report June 2017.Docx
    Literature Review Local and Traditional Knowledge In the Peel River Watershed ______________________________________ Kristine Wray University of Alberta December 2016 SUMMARY POINTS The Hay River Basin has played a vital role in the social, economic, and cultural well-being of many Aboriginal peoples. Given their reliance on and stewardship of its resources, many Aboriginal peoples have developed valuable knowledge about the state of the basin that can contribute to our understanding of historic and contemporary issues of planning, management and monitoring. The Hay River drainage basin is a part of the Mackenzie River system, which drains into the Arctic Ocean, drawing water from British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, and the Northwest Territories. “Kátło’dehé is the South Slavey Dene name for the Hay River, or an earlier spelling Xatlo Dehe” or from the K’átł’odeeche First Nation report, K’átł’odee ‘willow grass river’, referring to the origins of the river in Hay Lakes, northern Alberta, which is a prairie-like area. In Chipewyan, the Hay River is Hátł’oresche. In Cree, it is Maskosï-Sïpiy” (AANDC 2014). The Hay River is named for the abundant hay fields, which were nourished by the floods periodically experienced at the river mouth, which also brings driftwood into the Great Slave Lake (Piper 2009: 261). The Hay River Basin is considered to have been home to at least six Aboriginal groups: the Sekani, Dane-zaa, Dene Tha’, Dene, Métis, and the Woodland Cree. Each has their own cultural belief systems as well as systems of knowledge and practice that has led to the development of local and traditional knowledge about the Hay River Basin.

  • Eral Knowledge on Ice Jam Release
    University of Alberta Observation and modeling of ice jam release events on the Hay River, NWT by David Watson A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Water Resources Engineering Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering ©David Watson Spring 2011 Edmonton, Alberta Permission is hereby granted to the University of Alberta Libraries to reproduce single copies of this thesis and to lend or sell such copies for private, scholarly or scientific research purposes only.

Examining Committee Dr. Faye Hicks, Civil and Environmental Engineering Dr. Mark Loewen, Civil and Environmental Engineering Dr. Paul Myers, Earth and Atmospheric Science Abstract The Town of Hay River experiences significant threats to life and property each spring as ice jam release events from upstream bring waves of ice and water to the town. The development of a forecasting tool for ice jam release events has been limited by insufficient data, especially regarding the speed of ice runs associated with ice jam release events. The purpose of this research was to document and analyze ice jam release events to provide the town warning of their potential timing and magnitude, and to contribute to general knowledge on ice jam release.
