The Nunavut Planning Commission and Nunavut Impact and Review Board approved the construction of the raw water storage basin (reservoir) and the activity to fill it under NPC Amendment 149617 and NIRB file No. 21XN012. This activity was also approved by Nunavut Water Board Type B Water Licence No. 8BC-EUR2131. Originally, filling of the reservoir was estimated to require 299m3/day, however it has now been determined that 2000 m3/day will be required over 10 days from Station Creek at peak freshet flow. Station Creek is an ephemeral watercourse (flowing June to September) and is not considered fish bearing. For context, Station Creek flow rate during freshet ranges between 0.9 m3/s to 5.1 m3/s. The estimated volume passing the HAWS over a period of 30 days would therefore range between 2.4 million to 13.3 million m3. Therefore, the proposed pump rate of 2000m3/day represents only 0.45% to 2.57% of the 30-day creek volume. Filling of the reservoir will be a one-time event in 2024 during freshet and highwater and will not be needed in future years. The purpose of this amendment is to identify the water use increase to fill the reservoir which will require Nunavut Water Board Type A Licence processing.
