Emma Lake Baseline 2

Emma Lake

Saskatchewan, Canada

Historical sampling location on Lower Emma Lake. Emma Lake levels are controlled by the Saskatchewan Water Security Agency (WSC) who attempt to maintain the level within a set operating range. If levels are below the range and levels on Anglin Lake are above its operating range, water may be pumped to Emma Lake. If Emma Lake levels are high, water may be released to Christopher Lake.
