PART I. INTRODUCTION. The report herewith presented combines the results of hydrological obser- vations in the province of Manitoba for the period January 1, 1917 to September 30,1918. ^ Previous reports have contained data covering a calendar year. Since this was an arbitrary' period, chosen without reference to the yearly cycle of hydro- logical events, it was decided to change from the calendar to the climatic year. This decision was reached at a con^'erence of the heads of the several organizations interested. The period chosen as most representative was from October 1 to September 30. This period has been adopted by the following organizations which gather hydrological data: — Hydrometric Survey — Manitoba Hydrometric Survey — British Columbia Water Power Commission — Province of Nova Scotia Water Power Commission — Province of New Brunswick Reclamation Service — Department of the Interior Hydro-Electric Power Commission of Ontario. The interval January 1, 1917, to September 30, 1917, covers the transition period, while the rest of the period covered by this report represents a full climatic year. For purposes of economy the data for these two have been combined in this report. During the first period conditions were such as to produce a minimum run- ofT. This was particularly noticeable on the Winnipeg drainage area, where the lowest recorded discharges during the summer months occurred. Similar con- ditions were also noted on other streams. During the second period, especially the spring of 1918, very high discharges were noted on those streams draining the territory to the ea.st of lake Winnipeg. ORGANIZATION AND SCOPE. Following the inception of the work imdertaken by the Winnipeg River Power Survey, the Hydrometric Survey of Manitoba (formerly Hydrographic) was organised in 1912, superseding the former organization. It is a subsidiary organization of the Dominion Water Power Branch, the latter forming a sub- division of the Department of the Interior, Ottawa. The Survey is, therefore, not a Provincial but a Federal Go\ernment Organization. The energies of the Survey are directed toward the gathering of stream flow data and making of power and storage investigations. The Seld covered by the investigations of the Survey comprises the whole of Manitoba. In addition, certain investigations outside of the province have been carried on. These relate to storage questions, having a bearing on stream regulation and power development wit'iin the province. Such outside investi- gations have been confined almost entirely to the upper part of the Winnipeg River drainage basin. 64799—1 2 DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR. For some time past the Survey has also been advising the Ontario Depart- ment of Public Works in the operation of the Norman Dam and regulation of the Lake of the Woods. DISTRICTS. For purposes of organization and for convenience of descriptions, the whole territory covered by the work of the Survey has been separated mto several main divisions. These conform generally to the several drainage systems covering the province. They may be enumerated as follows: — 1— Lake of the Woods Outlets. 2 — Winnipeg river and Tributaries. 3_Rp(l River and Tributaries (excepting the Assuiiboine river). - 4 — Assiniboine river and Tributaries. 5— Saskatchewan river and District west of Lake Winnipegosis. 6 — The East Shore of Lake Winnipeg. 7 — Nelson river and Tributaries. Below are listed the stations maintained by the Survey. In the first list appear the names of these stations for which continuous records of discharge are available. In the second are listed stations at which meterings have been secured, but for which continuous records are not available. It should be pointed out that whiU> continuous records of gauge height have in some cases been secured, for various reasons, estimates of daily discharge have not been made; the stations are, therefore, cla.ssed as miscellaneous. The third list contains the names of stations at which gauge height records only have been obtained: — Reoclar Metering Stations. Stiilimi N'o. r> Mill :> MJi ft MKi 5 SAi 5 LMi .-i PKi .-.

DEFINITION OK TKRMS. The volume of wutcr flowing in a Htrram — the "run-off" or "discharge" — is expres-sod in various terms, each of which has become associated with a certain class of woric. These terms may lie divided into two groups: (1) Those which represent a rate of flow, as "second-feet," "miner's inches" and "discharge in second-feet per square mile;" and (2) those which represent the actual quantity of water, as "run-off depth in inches", "acre-feet," "mile-feet" and "millions of cul)icfeet." The units used in this series of reports are "second-feet," "second-feet per scpiare mile," "run-off depth in inches," "acre-feet", "mile-feet" and "millions of cubic feet." They may be defined as follows: — " Second-feet" is an abbreviation for cubic feet per second (c.f.s.). A second-foot is the rate of discharge of water flowing ia a channel of rectangular cross section, 1 foot wide and 1 foot deep, at an average velocity of I foot a second. It is generally used as a fundamental unit from which others are com- puted by the use of factors given in the following tables of equivalents. " Second-feet per square mile" is the average number of cubic feet flowing per second from each square mile of area drained, on the assumption that the run-off is distributed uniformly both as regards time and area. " Run-off depth in inches" is the depth to which a drainage area would be covered if all the water flowing from it in a given period were conserved and uniformly distributed on the surface. It is used for comparing run-off with rainfall, which is usually expressed in depth in inches. " Acre-feet" is equivalent to 43,560 cubic feet and is the quantity of water required to cover 1 acre to the depth of 1 foot. The term is commonly u.sed in connection with storage for irrigation or power. " Mile-foot" is equivalent to 27,878,400 cubic feet, and is the quantity of water required to cover one square mile to a depth of 1 foot, and is equal to 640 acre-feet. " Millions of cubic feet" is a term frequently used to express qimntity of storage. When the quantities are of sufficient magnitude the unit is increased tt) that of " Billions of cubic feet." Certain terms not in common use may be defined as follows:— " Control," " controlling section " and " point of control " arc used to designate the cro.ss .section of the stream below the gauge which controls or regulates the height of the water surface at tlie gauge. The control may not be the same cross .section at all stages. " Discharge relation " is the relation of discharge to gauge height. CONVENIENT EQUIVALENTS.

METHODS OF DETEUMININCl DISCHARCJE. There are a numl)er of mc'thods employed in determining the discharge for streams, each of which has its own particular advantage when employed under certain conditions. These various methods have been discu.ssed at length in a previous publica- tion so are not included in the present report. Those desiring information along these lines will find the subject well covered in Water Resources Paper No. 4 of the Dominion Water Power Branch. EXPLANATION OF DATA.

The Tabhi of Daily Discharges gives the discharge corresponding to the daily observed elevation of water-surfme at the station. Where observations are made more fre(juently than onc«' a day, the mean of the day's readings has been used in com]>uting discharge. Attention is calleil to the fact that the zero of the gauge Ixars no relation to zero flow or the bottom of the river. The measured discharge and corrcs))on(Ung ol)served gauge heights are the ba.se data from which the discliarge niting l.ibles, daily di>charF?es and monthly discharges are computed. The Discharge Hating Table, which is not published in tnis reiwrt, gives the discharge in second-feet, corresponriod for which the table is applicable. At such times as the gauge height id t«'mporarily aff«'cted by icen-oviT, backwater, etc., the discharge relation is not applicable nnle.-*.-; proper corrections to the gauge heights are kiujwn and applied. In the table of monthly discharge, the cc' headed " Maximum " gives the mean flow for the day of highest discha- it is evident that there may have been short periods when the discharge w s higher than that given in the column. Likewise in the column of " ^Iinimum " the quantity given is the mean How for the day of the lowest discharge. The column headed " Mean " is the average flow in cul)ic feet for liie month. On this mean are based the computations of run-off which have previously been defined The drainage areas as given for each station have been obtained by pla- nimeter determination from the latest available departmental maps. The base data presented in this report, unless otherwise stated in the description of station, has been collected by methods commonlj' in practice and dcscrilwd in previous annual reports.

At numcrouH «tatioiiH cliM-harKe?* only havt- Ui-n publihhtHi; daily KaiiKc hfiKhts ami other riltvant data for any «,ution- of the discharge at different controlling sections below the outlets hav been made from time to time.

Ajr oa.stern outlet, Lake of I tile Woods, depends upon the operation of the Kenora municipal power plant. I To determine the discharge und'^r these circum.stances, it wa.s necessary to I rate the power plant. At first an attempt was made to determine the discharge 10 DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR. directly, and to this ond a station was established by Mr. S. S. Scovil, June 27, 1912, about one-half mile below the power hous«f near Old Fort island; this proved unsatisfactory, and a station was established by A. Pirie. October 8, 1913, about one hundred and fifty feet above the power-house on the eastern outlet. This section was used to rate the power station. Location of Section. — The metering section is located about one hundred and fifty feet above the Kenora power hou.se on the eastern outlet of the Lake of the Woods. The Station is operated as a boat station and is used throughout the year. Drainage Aren.~Thc drainage area above the section is 20,400 square miles, but as there are several other outlets from tht> Luke of the Woods, this drainage area should not be used in computation of run-off. Channel. — The channel is permanent, being in solid rock and boulders, is fairly uniform and free from eddies. It is straight for fifty feet above the section and one hundred feet below and fairly uniform. ,\11 the water passes through the power-hou.-ie except for a small part escaping by the log shute. (/'nM(/c.— Tailrace and headrace gauges were established at the power plant m 1907 and ar{> the ones used in the records up to June of 1912. On June 24 and 27 of 1912 head and tailrace gauges were cstaljlished by S. S. Scovil, the former i)eing on the ui)stream side of the timber platform in the headrace and the latter .sixty feet below the j)ower-hou.se. On September 13, 1913, the location of the tailrace gauge was altered by (J. J. Lamb, the new location being at a point fifty-five feet north of th(> east "end of the i)ower-house. Since the above date all tailrace records refer to the gauge in the new location. Both of these gauges arc referred to W. P. S. datum. Discharge ^fensuremcnts. — Since this station was established, discharge measurements have been made covering practically the entire range in head and load to be met with in the operation of the plant, and from this information rating curves of load discharge for various heads have l)een constructed. Records A milablc— Daily gauge height records are available for the head and tailrace of the plant from August 21, 1907 to September 30, 1918. Based on these gauge heights and the accompanying loads on the plant, estimates of daily discharge are vailable for the above period. Accuracy. — Except for conditions due to very small loads, the rating may be considered good. Discharge Measurements of East Branch, Winnipeg River, at Kenora Power House, during 1917-18.

This gauge is referred to W.P.S. datum. Discharge Measurements.— \ large number of discharge measurements have been obtainetl at this section ranging in discharge from 2,700 to 37,700 c.f.s. Records Available. — From May 1, 1913 to September 30, 1918, a continuous record of daily gauge height has been obtained on the headrace gauge of the Norman dam. Estimates of daily discharge over the above period are available. These estimates are based upon these gauge heights and discharge measureni.-nts which have been taken at regular intervals throughout the period. Accuracy. — The Norman Dam which is located about 4,000 feet below the .section forms the control, and the discharge is, therefore, dependent upon the manipulation of that dam. Considerable rar^e in discharge may occur for the same gauge height recorded at the station.

Slaiion No. 5 PEi. History. — The station was cstabli.shed by S. C. O'Grady on December 13, 1913, and has been in operation continuou.sIy .since that date. The channel forms one of the outlets of the Lake of the Woods. It wa.s used or created in connection with the above company's mill, the discharge being controlled by the headgales. This mill was burned in 1903 and after this date the gates fell into disrepair and leakage occurred. It was to ascertain the amount of this leakage that the station was established. Un April 5, and C, 1917, the outlet was blocked up to permit of the enlarge- ment of the tunnel connecting Mink bay and Darlington bay. Following this work the leakage was very much reduced. To date no attempt has been made to again open up the channel. Location of Section. — The metering section is on th«' upstream side of the bridf;e crossing the channel, 30() feet above the old power house and ea.st of the h agates of the Keewatin Luml)er & Milling Company's plant. Drainage Area. — The drainage area above the section is 26,400 square miles, but as there are several other outlets from the Lake of the Woods, this drainage area should not be used in the computation of run-off. nKPANTSfKsr in- riiK istkhioh. rhnnnrl T\w U«»l of th« iIihimxI m fiiirly ixTiimni'nt, lN"''» '•'''* "iHtioii was •'KlnliliMlii'il a |M)iiit wiim lofnlnl on tli thH.r of th.' l.rulKf, from whuh ininiis r<>aiiitiKN won- takfii roincitlftU willi tli .Jisoliarp' inonnun'monls.

(Lakk of tiik Woods Orri-KLs. Sliitiiiit .\tatioii is operated as a lioat station tlirough- out the year. Drninnijf .Irea.— Thi- ove tliis seetion is 20,400 wiinare miles, thoiiKh all of tlie water eomiiiK from this i)a-iii does not pass the section, as ])art of it rocs tliroush the east hraneh of tlie Winnijien. These two hranehes, the east and west, join a ~hort distanee helow tin- se(;tion. r/K//(/((7. -The discharEc is eontincd to the channel for all staKes. Tlie hed ond banks of the river are of solid rnrk or large houlders and of a very permanent n.iture. The current is regular across the section. The velocities are high. Gaug€.~\ vortical staff gaiigi' is secured to a pile im the west side at the south end of th(! Keewatin River hridge. All dischargo measurements are referred to this gauge. A vertical statT gauge read during the meterii.,^, is loe-t. \ on the north side, about thirty feet above the meter section. Both of these gauges are referred to W.l'.S. datum. Discharge ^f€asurcments. — A large number of discharge measurements have been mad(! at this section over a range in stage of 14.12 feet, corresponding to a range in discharge of 3,300 to 41,900 c.f.s. Records Available. — A continuous record of daily gauge height has been obtained on the gauge at Keewatin River bridge from Ji le 28, 1*^12 to Septembei 30, 1918. 24 DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR.

WINNIPEG RIVER AND TRIBUTARIES. WINNIPEG RIVER. WiNNiPEo RivEK, Whitedoo Falls, North and South Channels. Station No. 5 PEio History. — On May 18, 1914, a metering section was established on the soutl eliannel of the Winnipeg river at Whitetlog falls by S. C. 0'(5rady. This statioi was operated as a boat station until July 1915, when a cable station was installed approximately one hundred feet upstream from the old section. Since that tim this station has been in operation. On May 24, 1914, a cable carrier station was established on the nortl channel at these falls by S. C. O'Grady and it has been in operation since tha date. Location of Sections. — The Winnipeg river is divided into two channel at a point thirteen miles i)elow the town of Minaki, Ontario, and it is on thes chaimels that the Whitedog falls are located. The falls consist of a series o pitches extending over a stretch of three miUs of the river. On the nortl channel the metering section is located about two hundred feet downstrean from the head of the channel and within twenty-five feet of the head of the firs pitch. The metering section on the south Channel is located about one mile belov the head of the channel and nine hundred feet above the crest of the secom pitch of the falls. There is no ice interference at either of these stations during the \vinte months, and discharge measurements may be made at all seasons of the yea wii.iout any change in location of the section. Drainage Area. miles. -The drainage area above these sections is 27,200 squar Channel. — The south channel is approximately four hundred feet wid( The bed of the channel is rock and not liable to shifting, the control for th section being the crest of the falls, nine hundred feet below. The bank are of rock and of sufficient height to confine the discharge to the channe at all stages. The channel is straight and free from eddies under nearly a conditions. The north channel has a width of approximately forty-five feet. The hea and banks of the channel are of rock and free from likelihood of shifting, th control being twenty feet below. The channel is straight above and below th section for a sufficient distance to insure freedom from eddies. Gauge. — The gauge at the south channel section is a rock-bolted verticj staff gauge, located on the left bank one hundred feet below the section, readin direct to W.P.S. datum. On June 17, 1916, on account of high water conditions a temporary staff gauge was placed two hundred feet below the section on th right bank and referred to W.P.S. datum. On July 26, 1917, a rock-bolte staff gauge was installed on the left side of this channel, about seventy-five fee upstream from the metering secl'on. This gauge is referred to W.P.S. datur and is direct reading. HYDROMETRIC SURVEY— MANITOBA. 81 On the north channel, a rock bolted vertical staff gauge was located on the right bank, about one hundred feet above the section. Thi.s gauge was also referred to W.P.S. datum and was u,sed up till July 20, 1918. On July 20, 1918, a vertical staff gauge was bolted to the rock on the >outh side of the channel, opposite the location of the old gauge. This gauge reads direct to W.P.S. datum and has been in use since the above date. On account of the impossibility of obtaining readers for the above gauges, the daily records were obtained from gauge readi'-gs at Minaki. The gaug(> at "his point is a vertical staff gauge secured to the crib work at the east end of the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway bridge at Minaki. The gauge is referred to W.P.S. datum. In August of 1915, a CJurley printed record water stage register, was installed on the island opposite the head of the south channel and since that date daily records have been obtained from same. Discharge Measurements. — Discharge measurements covering a range in stage of 1031.80 to 1039.31, have been taken at frequent intervals since the installation of the station. Records Available. — From September 14, 1913 to December .'), 1914, and from May 18, to August 15, 1915, continuous recortl of daily gauge height has been obtained. From the latter date to September 30, 1918 records on the automatic gauge at Whitedog have been obtained. Based on these gauge readings, estimates of daily discharge for the above Eeric'ls are available. Estimates of monthly-mean discharge based on gauge eights and actual measurements are also available. Combined and separate records of discharge for the two channels are avail- able covering the above periods.

WiNNiPEo River at Pinawa Channel, below Control Dam. illation No. o PFs. „,. f^tstory.— The Pincwa channel was a high water, or l)ack-fhannel of the vVmnipeg river, and was utilized as a diverting channel for a i ower plant built about nine miles below the inlet, by the Winnipeg Electric Railway Company. At first the plant depended upon the flow of water down this channel due to the natural stage of the river, but the rapid growth of the load necessitated the building of diverting dams in the main river to ensure sufficient flow under all stages. Meterings were made below the control dam on the channel bv engineers of the Company from 1907 to 1911. In May, 1912, a boat station was established by A. M. Beale, for the purpose of collecting discharge data, and from that date records have been obtained at this station. In June of 1915 a cable station was installed to take the place of the boat station on practically the same section. Location of Section.— The metering section is located in the N. W. Sec. 10, Tp. 14, Rge. 12, E.P.M., and approximately two hundred feet downstream from the control dam and eight miles above the power plant of the Winnipeg Electric Railway on the Pinawa channel. This plant is seven miles south-east of the town of Lac du Bonnet. ?*r, // YDROMETRIC HI RVE Y—MA NITOBA . 4S Channel. — The channel at the meter section is straight and regular, lM>ing a rock-cut channel, to which the discharge is confined at all stages of the river. (laiiye. — A vertical staff gauge bolted to the upstream side of the control ilam was set in place by the Winnipeg Electric Railway Company. In May of 1915 a (Jurley printed record water stage register was installed on the upstream side of the control dam close to the right bank. Both of these gauges are referred to W.P.S. datum. -Di-** liarge measurements covering a range in have been taken at frefjuent intervals since the Difichaigi' Mraxunincntx.- r-tage from Wt3.27 to S'WiJiC. (•stal)lishment of the station. Records Avnilahle. — Interniittujit records of daily gauge height were obtain- ed by the company from April 28, 190(), to the end of 1914, and these have been placed at the disposal of the Manitoba Hydrometric Survey. From May. 191.'), to Septembi-r, 15)18, the daily gauge record, being the mean of the daily records of the automatic gauge, are available. Based on the records of gauge height for the open water seasons to 1914, estimates of daily discharge are available. .lfc«r«ci/.— During the earlier years of the ojieration of the i)lant, the discharge curve was fairly well defined for the open water periods of the year, but since the plant has l)ecome heavily loaded the effect of same is apparent on the discharge at the section. During the winter season the extreme and varying ice conditions on the ciiannel l)elow the station preclude the possilnlity of obtaining accurate estimates of discharge based on gauge readings alone at the section. i Discharge Meaauretnents of Pinatrn Chnnne], helow Control Dam, during 1917-tS. f.

TRIBUTARIES. ^^'lHTEMOL•TH RiVKR AT WniTEMOUTH. Station Xo. 5 PHi. History. — The station was established on May 28, 1912 by G. H. Burnham and has been in practically constant operation since that date. Location of Section. — The meter section is located in Sec. 36, Tp. 11, Rge. 11, E.P.M., on the downstream side oi he traffic bridge across the Whitemouth river in the town of Whitemouth. All open-water measurements are taken from this bridge, and in the winter the measurements arc made from the ice on the same cross section of the river. Drainage Area. — The drainage area of the river above the station is 1,400 stjuare miles. Channel. — At the metering section there is slight interference to the flow, caused by the presence of pile bents supporting the bridge. These divide the channel into five sections. 84790-4 50 DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR. The bed of the channel is clay, and the control of the section is located about three hundred feet down stream. There is a possibility of this control shifting during extreme conditions of flow. The banks at the section are sufficiently high to confine the discharge within their limits, even under extreme flood conditions. Gauge.— A vertical staff gauge is secured to a pile at station 90 on the section. It is referred to an arbitrary datum. Discharge Measurements. — Discharge measurements have been taken at frequent intervals since the installation of the station and are over a range in stageof 73.23 to 79.17. Records Available. — From May 29, 1912 to March 31, 1914, continuous records of daily gauge height for the open water season, and intermittent records for the winter seasons have been obtained. From April 1, 1914, to September 30, 1918, continuous daily gauge readings have been obtained. Based on these gauge readings, estimates of daily discharge throughout the open w%ter seasons, and where sufficient information was obtained, estimates of daily discharge under ice cover, are available. Estimates of monthly mean discharge based on gauge readings and actual measurements are also available. Accuracy. — Between gauge heights 73.5 and 76.0 the discharge curve is well defined, beyond these limits the curve is not well defined. The estimates of daily discharge under winter conditions are reliable. Discharge Measurements of Whitemouth River, at Whiteinoulh, during 1917-18. Date. Gauce Heicht. Diacharte. Remarlu. Date.

RED RIVER AND TRIBUTARIES. RED RIVER. Red River at Emesson. Station No. 5 0Ci. History. — The station was established by S. S. Scovil on May 3, 1912 and has been continuously operated since that date. Location. — The section when established was on the downstream side of the C.N.R. bridge at Emerson. In the spring of 1914, the old bridge was replaced by a new one. At this new bridge, the section is located in lots 5 and 6, Parish of St. Agathe, on the downstream side and approximately twelve feet below the old station. All discharge measurements are made from this bridge during the open- water sea.son. In the winter the measurements are taken from the ice and downstream from the bridge to escape the effect of the piers. Drainage Area. — The drainage area of the river above this station is 34,600 square miles. Channel. — The bed of the channel at the station is composed of clay and gravel and not liable to shifting. It is straight above and below the section and the current is fairly regul.Hr throughout its width. The banks are high and only liable to overflow during exceptional flood periods as were encountered during the years of 1879, 1882, 1897 and 1916. -'SPSS^" HYDROMETRIC SURVEY— MANITOBA. 53 i Gauge. — A nine-foot vertical staff gauge is secured to the sheet piling arountl the west pier, twenty feet upstream from the section and is used for the lower stages of the river. The records of the upper stage of the river are observed on a gauge placed on the east side of the ice breaker on the upstream side of the bridge. On April 23, 1916, a chain gauge was established on the bridge, and the gauge records have been obtained from it during the open-water season. During the winter the readings are made at one of the staff gauges. On account of the extreme range in stage noted at this station, it is impossible to obtain satisfactory records at any one gauge. All of the gauges arc referred to M.H.S. (hitum. Discharge Measurements. — Since the installation of the station, discharge measurements have been taken at frequent intervals and are over a range in stage of 749-38 to 788-31 which represents a range in discharge of 2(K) to 46,000 c.f.s. Records Available.— From May 3, 1912 to March 22, 1914, continuous records of daily gauge height for the open-water season, and intermittent records for the winter season have been obtained. From March 23, 1914 to September 30, 1918, continuoJis daily gauge readings have been obtained. Based on these gauge readings, estimates of daily discharge throughout the open-water season, and from January 1, 1914, practically continuous estimates of daily discharge during the winter season are available. Estimates of monthly mean discharge based on gauge readings and actual measurements are also available. Accuracy. — Between gauge heights 749 and 788-") the discharge curve is well defined. Outside these limits the curve is not well definetl. Discharge Measurements of Red River at Emerson, during 1917-18. Date. Gauffo height . Diflcharge. 1 Remsriu. Date. Gauge height. Discharge.

AU open-water measure- ments are taken from this bridge, while winter measurements are taken from the ice on the same cross section of the river. Drainage Area.— The drainage area of the river above this station is 1 900 square miles. ' Channel.— The bed of the channel at this point is a gravelly clay and is not liable to shif . The channel is straight above and below the section and the hanks are higli enough to prevent overflow. Gauge.— When the station was established, a vertical staff gauge was secured to a pile on the bank of the river, twenty-five feet above the section. Difficulty HYDBOMBTRIC SURVEY— MANITOBA. M was encountered in obtaining readinKS on this gauge at all stages of the river, BO on March 14, 1914, a chain gauge was placed on the upstream side of the bridge. All records subsequent to this latter date have been obtained at this chain gauge. Discharge Measurements. — During the periods in which the station has l)een operated, discharge measurements have been taken at frequent intervals over a range in stage of from 83 • 67 to 94 • 66 which represents a range in discharge from 20 to 2,000 c.f.s. under open-water conditions. Records Available. — From April 12, 1913 to August 12, 1914, continuous records of daily gauge height for the open water season, and intermittent records for the winter season have been obtained. From July 5, 1916 to September 30, 1918, continuous daily gauge readings have been obtained. Based on these gauge readings, estimates of daily discharge for the above open-water seasons are available. Estimates of monthly mean discharge based on gauge readings and actual measurements are also available. Accuracy. — Between gauge heights 83-7 and 85-0 the discharge curve is well defined; between 85 and 94-8 it is fairly well defined. Beyond these limits the curve is not well defined.

AS8INIB0INE RIVER. Ahsiniboink River at Millwood. Station No 6 MEi. History.— The station was established by W. G. Worden on October 11, 1912, and since that date has been in practically continuous operation. Location of section. — The meteriiiR section is located in the S.W.J Sec. 2, ffi 20, K(j<', 29, W.P.M., at the downstream side of the traffic bridge, four liimiln'd f<>('t downptieam from the old mill dam and one-quarter of a mile soiitti of the town of Millwood. All ()|)en-water measurements are taken from flie bridge, \N'int«'r measurements arc taken from the ice on the same section uf tho river. Drainage Area. — The drainage area of the river above this station is 7,590 M|iiai«- miles. Channel. — The channel above and below the station is straight and the velociti^ across the section fairly regular. The bed of the channel is composed ■ ■f (lay and gravel and not liable to shift. During time, of extreme flood condi- tidiis the river is liable to overflow its banks at this point, (iauge. — A vertical staff gauge is secured to the central pier of the bridge, and IS referred to a permanent M.H.S, bench-mark, located seventy-five feet M)uth-^ast from the downstream side of the bridge on the left bank. The Ix'iich-niark is set to an assumed datum. Discharge M ensure tnents. —Since the establishment of the station, discharge iiuasurements ha\(> been made over a range in stage of 98-91 to 107-42, cor- iis|Hinding to a range in discharge of 30 to 5,200 c.f.s. Records Available.— Yrom January 27, 1913 to Mmj-cIi 29. 1914, continuous rofords of daily gauge height for opcn-wat€r seasons, and intermittent records of gauge^ height for the winter season have been obtained. From March 29, 1914 to September 30, 1918, continuous records of daily gauge height have been obtained. Based on these daily gauge heights, estimates of daily discharge are available.

Shell River at Asessippi. Station No. 5 MDi History. — The first measurement under direction of this Survey was taken on the Shell river at Asessippi by W. J. Ireland on September 15, 1913. This measurement was taken from the downstream side of the traffic bridge, a short distance below the dam. As a permanent station this location was not satisfactory, and on June 9, 1914, a cable carrier station was established downstream from the bridge. This station has been in continuous operation since that dat". Location. — This station is located in Sec. 4, Tp. 23, Rge 28, W.P.M., on the Shell river one and one-quarter mile downstream from the traffic bridge in the town of Asessippi and fourteen miles north of the town of Russell. Drainage Area. — The drainage area of the river above this point is 930 square miles. Channel. — The channel is straight above and below the section for a short distance, though the general course of the river is very sinuous. Tlie bed of the channel is composed of gravel and boulders. The banks are high and not liable to overflow. 78 DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR. rSS^ '" ' ""^ " "'""^ '"' «' «» ^5 «•?■».

MiNNEDosA River (Little Saskatchewan) River at Beilby'b Bridge. Station No. 5 MF\. History. — The station was established by W. J. Ireland on March 18, 1014 to supersede the station which had been located at Riverdale, at which station it was found there was considerable fluctuation in stage due to the opera- tion of the power plant at Minnedosa. Since the establishment of the Beilby HriilRc station it has been in continuous operation. Location. — The station was originally located in the N.W. J Sec. 9, Tp. Iti, Hge. 18, W.P.M., on the downstream side of the traffic bridge, one and one- Imlf mile downstream from the junction of the Rolling and Minnedosa rivers, live miles west of ('Ian William and twelve miles northwest of Minnedosa. After the spring breakup of 1914, it was found that on account of eddies on the section the location was not satisfactory as a metering station, and a cable tiirrier station was installed four hundred feet downstream from the bridge. Mea.surements are made at this cross section during all seasons of the year. Drainage Area. — The drainage area of the river above the station is 1,120 ■-•iu.'ire miles. Channel. — The station is located in the centre of a straight stretch of the river, eight hundred feet long. The bed and banks are of silt and gravel and fairly permanent, though there may be a shift at the control point a short distance •6 DBPAHTMKST Or TUB INTSHIOR. dowMtrram durinij extreme bUkm ot the river.

This bench- mark is set to an arbitrary datum DxMhargt MtaturtmfnU.—Wmce the station was established, discharge measuremenU have l)een taken over a range in gauge height of 93-75 "to 97 21, rorresponding to a range in disrharge of 10 to aiO c.f.s. under open- water conditions. Record* i4wii/o<)fc.— From April 25, 1914 to July 1, 1916, daily records of Euage height were obtained. From that date until September 30, 1918 readiiiK^ ave been secured every other day. Bused on thoHc gauge headings, estimates of daily discharge are available for the open-water seasons. Estimates of mean monthly discharge based on gauge heights and actuiil discharge measurements are available over the altove period. A crurocy.— Throughout the range in stage covered by the discharge measirc- ments, VIS. l)etween gauge heights 93 7 and 97-2, the discharge curve is fj.irlv well defined. ^ Discharge Meaaurentents of Minnedoaa River at Beilby'a Bridge during 1917-18.

Station No. .5 MF,. History. — The station was established by E. B. Patterson on May 6, 1915, and has been in practically continuous operation since that date. Location. — The metering section is located at the dowTistream side of what is locally known as Erickson's bridge, one-half mile from Danvers post office on the north boundary Sec. 21, Tp. 18, 11. 18, W.P.M. During periods of low stage, measurements are made by wading at a point five feet downstream from the bridge. Drainage Area. — The drainage area of the river above this station is 79 square miles. Channel— The bed of the channel is of clay and liable to shift. The banks are low and during periods of high discharge would overflow above and below the station, but all discharge would be confined wthin the limits of the banks at the station. Gauge. — A vertical staff gauge is secured to a pile on the downstream side of the bridge. This gauge is referred to an arbitrary datum. ■'11 92 DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR. mo^^liZ^il .^^«*»'-«"»«"'»T-S>nce the station was established, discharce moHsurcments have been obtained over a ranRo in Kaugc h.ight of from 87 27 waierlomHUoT "^ " ™"''" "^ '^''''^'"'' ^''*™ "* ^" ^'^ ''■^•«- ""^" "P^"' Records Available.— From May 6 to Noveir' or li,{1915: Anril 22 to Nnv- 3I? fQli i«i6;/P"i9 to November 30 1917. an f. .n'Ma^ch 24 toSptembJr 30, 1918, records of daily gauge height have been ^bi..ined. ^ea.onr'aJe'avarbfe'!"*' '""'*'' "''""*'' "^ '^""^ ^"''»'*^«« ^«' t^*' °P«"-«t" heighlr8"7Ta7d?8%';;te^^^^^^^^^ ^^-p* •^^'^-- «-«« Discharge Measuremenls of Whirlpool liiver at Darners, during 1917-18.

METEOIIOLOGICAL STATIONS. Mi'teoroloKical .stations have been maintained at the following points-- Pinawa. Evaporation records are also obtained at these two jwints. Meteorological Station, Keewatin. In the spring of 1913, a meteorological station was established at Keewatin on the Lake of the Woods and from the month of May of that year continuous records Imve been obtamed at this station. In addition to the regular meteorological equipment, apparatus for observ- ing evaporation has been installed. This consists of a tank equipped with a measuring point. The tank is floated on a raft, which is moored in the bay at Keewatin. The records, therefore, indicate evaporation from water surface. Meteorohgiml Dal,i of M.H.S.
