Description

This study delineates flood hazard areas and determines design flood levels along an approximate 13 km reach of Sawridge Creek through Slave Lake as well as almost 5 km along the Sawridge Creek flood control channel. The study incorporates flow interactions between Lesser Slave Lake, the Lesser Slave River, Sawridge Creek and the flood control channel. The design discharge for Sawridge Creek is 170 m³/s upstream of the flood control channel and 83.0 m³/s downstream of the channel. The design discharge for the flood control channel itself is 87.0 m³/s. The study was prepared in March 1993. Flood information available after study completion may not be reflected in the current flood hazard study report or flood hazard mapping.
