J. Conway Engineer with the provincial water control Branch said that existing dikes would be raised by 2v4 feet and seven Niiles of new. Dike would be built to protect Farmland. Work on raising the Long Dike North of Riverton was under Way and a new Dike was to be installed Southeast of Clande he said. Norm Mudry water control chief of said that statistically the present situation was Good and that if All held Well residents could look Forward to a maximum base level of 715 feet next summer. Maximum base level attained on the Lake this past summer was 717.6 but had dropped to 716.5 by sept. 6 when Strong winds drove the Lake to a record 719.8, not including wave height or. Mudry stressed however that he was not making a pre diction but was rather looking at past Lake statistics on inflow and outflow. What i say today might be completely wrong two weeks from depending on Wea ther and wind conditions he explained to the audience. He also told the audience that the government had instructed his department to undertake a study of the Lakeshore to deter mine what Steps might be taken to protect the Shoreline. This study his department hoped to have finished by the end of november. Asked what effect using the Lake As a Hydro electric storage Basin would have on Lakeshore property or. Mudry told the audience this was a matter of government policy and As such he was unable to answer. He did say that to the Best of my knowledge no firm Deci Sion has been made by the government As to at what level Manitoba Hydro would be allowed to control the Lake there is the Hydro interest but there Are other interests on the Lake and i am sure the government will give them a Chance to be Willllr Sec lj1 the benefits of which would not hour guard in the former death __11 4-1-i a an be commensurate with the costs. Could be done if you had the a full scale inquiry into the Lake in 1958 decided that the expenditure of some million to satisfy recreation interests should Hydro use the Lake As a Reser voir would not be justified. If Lakeshore residents should expend funds repairing Homes and cottages or if they should rather plan on relocating them because of Hydro projects causing High water or. Mudry said i am not in to advise. To protect property or re locate is a personal decision. I can Only stress again that the Hydro has not come to the government with a firm Manitoba Hydro is currently building a Power. Plant on the Nels Pri River the Lake s Only out let and has plans to build More. Further development of Power Sites along the River would in clude construction of a control dam at the Lake s outlet to regu-1 late the Lake level for Hydro purposes. Such control Many Lakeshore residents fear would mean flood ing of their farms cottages and Homes with every storm on the Lake although or. Mudry could not be pinned Down to any level which Hydro might control the Lake he did say that if the Lake were controlled at 715 to 716 feet been reported residents would be in trouble with Strong North winds on the Lake. Such Wir Idi. He said could raise the level two to three feet and six to eight foot wave of top of that were not inconceivable. Statistically such Only occurred once every 12 years he said. Lakeshore residents however claimed they experienced two or three such storms every summer and noted that they had had three bad storms this fall.
