Lake Pineimuta Marsh improvements engineering feasibility study. N. Harden
Material type:
TextPublication details: MB : 1981Online resources: Abstract: Seven alternative concepts for the development of Lake Pineimuta have been studied. The costs for each concept are listed in Table 1 and shown in Figure No. 1 to 7. Development of the Pineimuta marshes is not feasible due to high costs for the necessary works combined with relatively low duck production. As an alternative to engineering works,having the Province operate the Fairford River control structure so as to not increase the discharge in the river during nesting season would result in stabilized water levels and therefore increased duck production. It would not however provide the drawdowns every 7 to 10 years required to re-establish marsh vegetation.
