Description

This schedule sets out the water conservation objective flows for the Oldman River from the confluence of the St. Mary River to the mouth of the Oldman River. Water conservation objectives set out the volume and quality of water to remain in rivers for the protection of a natural water body and its aquatic environment. They are flow targets under the first-in-time, first-in-right priority water allocation system and apply to all new licences and existing licences with a retrofit provision.

Description

The Elbow River Dam at McLean Creek site (MC1) was investigated as one of several options considered to mitigate flood risk, considering the devastation that occurred during the June 2013 flood. The MC1 project concept considers building an earth fill dam across the main stem of the Elbow River. This study builds on the results of previous work and utilizes the results of subsurface investigations documented in the data report entitled Preliminary Geotechnical Investigation, Elbow River Dam at McLean Creek, Alberta, AMEC, May 2014 included in this sudy as Appendix B. This current study also utilizes LiDAR 15 elevation data which is significantly more accurate than elevation data available for previous work.
