56 Peace River Secondary Consolidation 1982 I 1982 i ll d In 1982, ice cover collapsed in this reach and produced high water levels at the Town of Peace River (TPR). Linked to discharge increase after holidays

58 Control Flow Current Criteria 1) Control flow is implemented 2 days prior to the ice front reaching a point 16 km downstream of Town 2) Control flow is lifted 10 to 14 days after the ice front arrival at Dunvegan or about 0.4 m of thermal ice at Dunvegan

59 Control Flow Trial Criteria 1) Control flow is implemented 2 days prior to the ice front reaching a point 16 km downstream of Town 2) Control flow is lifted when there is about 0.4 m of thermal ice for at least a 10 km stretch between Dunvegan and McLeod Cairn

60 Trial Criteria More Scientific (thickness rather than ice front location) Initiated by the Glacier Project Based on extensive studies of secondary consolidations It was found under current flow control practices that secondary consolidations were arrested by 0.25 m of thermal ice or less 0.4 m provides a Factor of Safety of years of successful trials

62 Freeze-up 1) Target Elevation at TPR is m allows 5 m freeboard for secondary consolidations If above m the JTF will closely monitor If above m JTF will recommend some action to try to get water level back below m 2) Control Flow at TPR is set (1600 m 3 /s) PCN flow 1400 to 1500 m 3 /s Inflows typically 100 to 200 m3/s between Peace Canyon and the Town 3) West Peace Subdivision basement flooding Elevation >315.5 m (1 to 2 weeks)

63 JTF Procedures during break-up

64 JTF Break up Procedures In the 2-3 weeks prior to breakup if the benchmark elevation of m is exceeded the JTF will continue close monitoring i of : river levels discharges tributary inflow JTF will investigate/implement measures to JTF will investigate/implement measures to lower pre-breakup levels to below m

65 JTF Break up Procedures (continued) if Smoky River Basin snow pack is above normal and there is a high probability of the Smoky River breaking up into the Peace River or TPR Flow > 2000 m 3 /s 3 days forecast of flow at TPR are conducted If forecast is greater than 3200 m 3 /s The Peace Canyon Flows are reduced d in order to maintain TPR Flow less than 3200 m 3 /s
