Pc Power plan termed disaster Winnipeg free press. 13. 1974 i would be a Ilis slur to mind cubic feet to second of water Down the Tiv or past Thompson us pro posed by the previous 1 Rogres Sive conservative government of Manitoba an Engineer who has constructed a Model of a three mile stretch of the River said wednesday. Prof. Victor Galay of the University of Manitoba civil engineering department said in an interview that a cubic foot a second flow would not Only flood the City of Thomp son but would Likely Wash out the Bridge Over the Burntwood Stiver at Thompson and cause a great Deal of erosion of the River bed. With his Model of the three mile stretch of River from just downstream of Thompson up Stream to the pump House for the Thompson water Supply prof. Galay is Able to simulate various flows Down the River and Sauyu their relative effects. The cubic fool a Sec Ond maximum flow now pro posed by Manitoba Hydro with a Low level diversion of thei Churchill Olivcr at Southern in Dian Lake causes few prob lems he said. He said Thompson pump House about two Miles up Stream from the town will have to be moved and there will be some flooding of the Thompson cemetery. As Well he said some will have to be done in the area downstream from the Thomp son Bridge to prevent bunk Ero Sion caused by the increased flow through the rapids Undi the Bridge Ami the resulting eddies downstream from the rapids. Under the previous govern input Manitoba Hydro had planned a High level diversion of the Churchill River at South can Indian Lake with a cubic foot flow through the Burntwood River into the Nel son River. The plan with some modifications is still being urged by the conservative opposition in the legislature. It would just be a discs prof. Galay said. He said the Burntwood River would overflow its Banks in numerous places upstream from Thomp son and the water would flow Overland to rejoin the River flooding Thompson in the process. "1 think if would be much too expensive to build dikes All along the he said. Al the 5s.ooo cubic foot flow lie said the water would come just below the Bottom of the t h o in p s o n Bridge and the Structure probably would not be Able to withstand the pres sure and would collapse. The 50-foot-Long Model Eon. Strudel in february under a n i i o b a Hydro research Grant has been used to deter mine some of the eff cos of Manitoba Hydro s proposed diversion and according to prof. Galay has pretty Well borne Mil the predictions of Hydro end. Taggart Dies at 81 Toronto Cdr.

Ploce main Street All Ore Welcome a three mile Section of the Burntwood River at Thompson Man., has been duplicated in a 50 foot Model designed to simulate the effects of the Churchill River diversion on this Northern Mani Toba River. Prof. Victor Galay project director and a member of the department of civil engineering at the University of Manitoba exam Ines the Model before it was demonstrated to Hydro engineers and government officials wednesday. Better than a flow that dwindles and then increases again during flood conditions. Prof. Galay said however that the Model cannot Duple Cal erosion problems because the Model clearly shows that the cubic feet a flow does t turn the Burnt Wood Olivcr into a raging Tor he said the Long term average flow of the River is cubic feet per second of the difficulty in incorporating the texture of the earthen Banks of the River into the Model. The Best the Model can do is show where erosion problem s arc Likely to occur so that these areas can be studied in the Field he said. Prof. Galay was assisted in the construction of the Model by three graduate students in civil engineering.
