Shoal Lake Watershed Management Plan

The Shoal Lake Watershed encompasses multiple jurisdictions and a watershed management plan was developed to help guide management of the watershed based upon achieving a sustainable balance among ecological, social, and economic needs. The Shoal Lake Watershed Management Plan (SLWMP) contains information that assesses the state of water and related resources, evaluates human impacts and influences, and considers the needs and interests of watershed residents and resource users. It establishes goals, objectives, principles and strategies to fulfill those needs.

Shoal Lake Watershed Working Group (SLWWG) representatives from the First Nation communities located on Shoal Lake, the Federal Government, the provinces of Ontario and Manitoba, and the City of Winnipeg developed the plan with input from other stakeholders through events such as Focus Group and stakeholder presentation sessions, as well as public Open Houses.

Shoal Lake Watershed Working Group representatives have presented the SLWMP to their respective governments for endorsement consideration. At the present time, not all governments have endorsed the plan and continue with their review.
