Summer Temperature Management Program in effect (10 July through 20 August)

The Summer Temperature Management Program (STMP) is now in effect through to 20 August. Read below about the STMP. 

STMP is focused on protecting salmon during migration through the Nechako River. The program is a provincial regulatory requirement and implemented by third party fishery biologists and hydrologists, who collect data and analyze trends to determine spillway operations to regulate water temperatures in July and August. STMP period runs from July 10 to August 20. During this period, you will see water levels fluctuate in the Nechako River.

Visit the Flow Facts page on www.getinvolvednechako.ca and under that you can see real time data for flows and reservoir levels. If you would like to be notified every time there is gate change during STMP, contact Aman Parhar at [email protected]
