LOW WATER WARNINGS ENDED FOR QUINTE CONSERVATION WATERSHEDS
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: November 14, 2019
LOW WATER WARNINGS ENDED FOR QUINTE CONSERVATION WATERSHEDS
Recent rainfall and improved stream flows mean the Quinte Conservation watersheds are no longer in a Low Water Condition warning. Quinte Conservation Water Resources Technician, Dave Eastcott says, “We are still concerned for the water levels in the area and will continue to monitor precipitation and stream flows. We will need a lot of snow over the winter and a good spring runoff to return our groundwater supplies to their normal conditions.”
The Quinte Conservation watersheds have been in low water conditions since August 21, 2019. A Level 2 low water condition was declared on September 17, 2019 for the Moira, Napanee, and Salmon River Watersheds. Low water conditions are ranked as Level 1, 2 or 3 based on a prolonged period of low flows or precipitation.
