Description

Threepoint Creek, a tributary to the Sheep River, originates in the Kananaskis Improvement District and flows into the Municipal District of Foothills No. 31. The entire Threepoint Creek sub-basin was identified as a potential candidate for the Fisheries Habitat Enhancement and Sustainability (FISHES) Program by Regional Fisheries Management staff. Widespread habitat degradation and increased sediment inputs, exacerbated by the 2013 flood, are significant issues for fish in this creek.

Description

This study delineates flood hazard areas and determines design flood levels along an approximate 31 km length of the Highwood River through High River. The design discharge for the Highwood River ranges from 750 m³/s at the upstream study extent to 650 m³/s at the downstream extent. Included in the study area are lands flooded by overflow from the Highwood River into the Little Bow River via Baker Creek and the Little Bow Canal, along approximately 3 km of Baker Creek and almost 1 km of the Little Bow River. The flood hazard mapping in a portion of the overflow area and along the Little Bow River is currently under review by Environment and Sustainable Resource Development. The study was prepared in August 1992. Flood information available after study completion may not be reflected in the current flood hazard study report or flood hazard mapping.
