Living all of my life on a farm in on the Pipestone creek watershed which etunveally reaches Oak Lake and then the Souris River via Plum Creek, I have to conclude that water management all begins on private and crown land or largely on thousands of privately owned farms. Our farm and the area in general, is known as pothole country, thousands of small water holding areas, many surrounded by trees and native prairie. These areas can hold enormous amounts of water and and regulate runoff from spring flooding. Over the past few years these have been removed in a massive ongoing landscaping process called agricultural farmland drainage. As farms increase in size the drainage of potholes and sloughs increase dramatically. The drainage of potholes on agricultural land serves only one purpose and that is to remove surface water with little or no regard to where it may end up. In fact the drainage of farmer owned potholes is regulated by a permitting process here in Saskatchewan. A recent estimate that came to my attention was that less than five percent of all drainage on farm land is actually permitted, the balance is unlawful under both provincial law and municipal bylaw. Provincial and Municipal governments simply do not bother to enforce or cannot enforce thier own regulations nor do they have any idea how drainage by individual farmers affects the downstream flooding of our neighbors in southeastern Saskatchewan, North Dakota and Manitoba in the Souris and Assiniboine River basins. It would seem to me that before we embark on more massive spending so called flood control on the Souris(or Mouse) our governments should appraise the overall effectiveness of the current structures and begin to evaluate the impact of the ignorance of municipal and provincial regulations and the resulting unlawful and indiscriminate drainage by farmers.
