Boaters are being asked to the careful on the water as we continue to see lots of rain this week.
Staff with Parks Canada have announced today that the Trent, Severn and Otonabee Rivers have high water levels.
“In addition, from Lock 1 – Trenton to Lock 27 – Young’s Point, flows will increase outside of navigation hours as of today (June 9, 2022) until further notice. The public should consider these overnight flows as non-navigable,” said staff.
The team says that higher levels are also due to some adjustments to the dam to compensate for all the rain.
Parks Canada notes that in the last seven days, we’ve seen about 50 to 100 mm added to the watershed with all the rain. That is above what we normally get this time of year.
