Final Report - Alberta IFN Stream Classification Assessment Project Validation of the Recommended Method

In December 2000, Alberta Environment (AENV), with the support of Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO), contracted Golder Associates Ltd. (Golder) to carry out Phase I of the Alberta IFN Classification Assessment Project. The overall objective of the Project is to develop a reliable and defensible tool to establish instream flow needs (IFNs) for small to medium-sized streams in Alberta. The tool is needed to assist AENV in regulating water withdrawals from streams and rivers while protecting the aquatic environment. A rapid ssessment tool is required to determine IFNs at much less cost than site-specific studies.

Other statues that regulate activities in watercourses of the province are the Alberta Public Lands Act, the federal Fisheries Act and the Navigable Waters Protection Act.
