Summary | The Department of Environment and Climate Change has a long-established partnership with the Water Survey of Canada to collect stream flow, water level and lake level measurements routinely across the territory, including at locations where there are communities at risk of flooding. A summary of these and other data and information are provided regularly to territorial and regional emergency managers to help understand the status of waterways near communities at risk of flooding in the lead-up to, and during spring break-up – the highest-risk period for flooding in the Northwest Territories. |
Local Relevance | Early winter water levels and flow rates remain very low across most of the NWT and in many instances are similar to those recorded last year at this time. Ice and freeze up dynamics may cause spikes or gaps in water level and flow values. |
