Ottawa river flood control plan aims at channel and reservoir work
The project estimates a right of way cost of 269000 and a federal spend of 2868000 on Ottawa channel improvements. Two upstream reservoirs Pomona and Melvern would hold back runoff from about 700 square miles, reducing flood crests and enabling passage through Ottawa. The plan also envisions water supply and recreational lake uses.
