Objective(s): To characterize the hydro potential of the NWT, and the hydrological information collected from the four gauging sites will be used to determine if any hydro potential exists on these four rivers.
Project Description: NT Hydro is in the process of characterizing the hydro potential of the NWT, and the hydrological information collected from the four gauging sites will be used to determine if any hydro potential exists on these four rivers. These gauges are not being installed in relation to development of a specific hydro project on these water bodies. Gauging stations operate and log data continously in a 12 month annual basis. Water Survey will make 3-5 trips a year to each gauging station to take flow measurements and service and/or maintain hydrometric equipment. All access to gauging sites wil be via helicopter or fixed wing aircraft and crew will be spend approximately 2-5 hours at each site. Installation of the gauging stations: Hydrometric gauging equipment will be housed in a 48 x 36 x 12 inch Stahlin fibreglass shelter which is mounted on an aluminum frame. The aluminum frame will be bolted to bedrock with four 3/... Show more
