Roziere, P. Eng. of Ducks Unlimited (Canada), Independent Test-Lab Limited undertook to investigate the preliminary design of the dykes for the proposed Netley Marsh project located on the south shore of Lake Winnipeg. The proposed dyke system,to be located in the various marsh sectors is shown on Drawing No. 1 to Drawing No. 3. Netley Marsh is part of the Red River Delta which is typified by low topography, flat river gradient and numerous refilled channels of the Red River. These channels have created their own landforms and soil deposits through erosion and/or deposition. Noteable amongst the landforms are the clay levee systems, isoloated peat deposits and clay infilled channels (ref. air photo interpretation drawings attached). These remnants of flooding and deposition form the channel soils and dyke foundations of the proposed Ducks Unlimited Netley Marsh project.
