On 1 August 2000 a continuous flow regime was initiated from Terzaghi Dam, located at the eastern end of Carpenter Lake, to improve conditions of fish habitat in the Lower Bridge River. Questions concerning the effects of the increased flows on the river led to a baseline study designed to monitor physical conditions below Terzaghi Dam before and after the flow release.

Audience:  Government and Public

This monitoring program, which began in 1996, is scheduled to continue at a minimum until 2004, and has become part of a proposed 16-year long flow experiment under the Water Use Plan. The main purpose of the monitoring program in 2003 was to examine the influence of the water release from Terzaghi Dam on fish resources and the aquatic environment in reaches 2, 3 and 4 of the Lower Bridge River. This report summarizes the results of data gathered from this program during 2003.
