Hnausa Harbour Manitoba - Harbour Dredging of Lake Winnipeg at Hnausa - Winter 2020-21

Hnausa Harbour is located on the West side of Lake Winnipeg, approximately 120 km North of Winnipeg, Manitoba. The harbour is an active commercial fishing facility under the administration of Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) Small Craft Harbours Branch (SCH).

Small Craft Harbours is proposing to undertake dredging at Hnausa Harbour.  The scope of this project includes dredging of the channel entrance. The proposed dredging will be done from the ice by land based equipment and a silt curtain will be used to isolate the area from the rest of the lake.  All dredged material will be disposed of on land above the high water mark. The approximate area to be dredged is 3020 square meters, and the approximate total volume of material is 2000 cubic meters.

Latest update

October 27, 2020 – Fisheries and Oceans Canada issued its Notice of Determination and determined that the project is not likely to cause significant adverse environmental effects..
