    Sharing is SO MUCH APPRECIATED!

    Collingwood, ON [01 November 2024] – The Town of Collingwood and Nottawasaga Valley Conservation Authority (NVCA) have initiated a water level study in Cranberry Marsh and the community is invited to participate.

    NVCA has placed a community monitoring station at the lookout along the Cranberry Marsh boardwalk. Residents can help the study by submitting water level observations and photographs taken at the community monitoring station to the NVCA.

    To submit observations, residents are invited to record the water level on the ruler at the station along with the date and time. Next, take a photo of the ruler showing the water level and text all this information, including the photo, to 705-717-8694. More detailed instructions can be viewed on the signage onsite.

    “The community monitoring station was installed in August, and we will be collecting data for one year,” said Ian Ockenden, Manager of Watershed Science at NVCA. “This year-long project will tell us what is happening in the wetland. Wetland water levels fluctuate naturally, and we need to determine if these water levels are changing beyond what would be expected in a natural system.”

    To learn more about how water levels fluctuate in wetlands, visit NVCA’s website at nvca.on.ca.

    Findings from the Cranberry Marsh study will be reported back to Collingwood Council following the year-long study.
