Tonight, we’re increasing the water release below John Hart Dam down Elk Falls Canyon to 110 m3/s (📷).
Total #CampbellRiver flow from John Hart facilities will be ~235 m3/s.
Upstream inflow into reservoirs from #BCStorm ~1000 m3/s. Major snowmelt.

We need sewage overflow reporting in Ontario. We can and should mitigate risks like this. @CanadianWater @Waterkeeper @ecojustice_ca @envirodefence @CanEnvLawAssn @CdnWaterNetwork @EngineersCanada @ChiefsofOntario @PHAC_GC @GovCanHealth @COVID19Tracking @FoodWaterFirst
When it rains in Toronto - we really need better real time reporting on sewage overflows - where, when, how much. Also a recommendation that downtown core community conserve on water use to prevent sewage going into Lake. Disgusting sites today. @swimguide
