Warning Issued By Hydro About Burntwood River

Manitoba Hydro has issued a warning of possible high water levels on the Burntwood River.

 

While it's not expected to have an impact on the city or any residents, the situation is being monitored closely.

 

Manitoba Hydro added that significant precipitation could create complications, though there isn't any major precipitation in the forecast. 

 

Water behind the Manasan Control Structure is near its maximum normal operating limit, and it is likely that the structure's emergency fuse plug will be activated.

 

This may result in a rise in water level of up to one meter over the course of a day.
