TextPublication details: Winnipeg : Manitoba Dept. of Mines, Resources and Environmental Management, 1975Description: 1 v. : maps ; 28 cmSubject(s): Abstract: Delta Marsh, situated at the south end of Lake Manitoba, is Manitoba's most widely known marsh. Under optimum conditions it can support large and varied waterfowl and wildlife populations. However, periods of low water levels during droughts, and untimely water level fluctuations have seriously hampered the productivity of the Marsh. In the 1940's structures were built including a fixed crest dam at Clandeboye Bay and flap gates on the Delta channel. These were designed to increase low Marsh levels by trapping water driven into the marsh by wind setup on Lake Manitoba. However, many people now feel that the stability of water level brought on by these control structures has in general been detrimental to the Marsh. The water Resources Division was therefore asked to make a hydrologic study of the Delta Marsh examining the proposal involving removal of the existing structures at Clandeboye Bay and Delta channel, and the alternative of replacing the existing structures at these location
