Flooding & Foreshore Reports for Wasa Lake



From the WLLID web site:


The WLLID engaged McElhanney Associates, Engineers and Land Surveyors to do an initial review of the flooding and suggest possible alternatives for reducing the impact of high water. Please click on the following link to view the report. Flood Study 2012


An earlier 1987 study by Ric Baker, PEng. of the BC Water Management Branch dealt with overland and other flooding issues which led to installation of the flap gate system which has since installation halted overland flooding. Please click on the following link to view the report.Baker Report 1987


I also found these reports on Foreshore Inventory and Mapping:

2009 86 Pages
2010 124 Pages

There may be other documents, so please share the links.

These are interesting topics, but a little long. An executive summary would be useful.
