H2O Power is proud to announce that on May 26, 2021 during the Ontario Waterpower Association (“OWA”) Annual Conference, that our Vice President, Operations, Marc Mantha, was the recipient of the R.R. Dodokin award, which recognizes the outstanding contribution of an individual to the advancement of waterpower in Ontario. This award is based on Marc’s 40 years of leadership in the industry; which includes being a founding member of the OWA, his various positions on the OWA board and the many technical advisory panels and committees that he has served on as well as the time and expertise that he has dedicated to the various advocacy efforts of the OWA. Most recently, Marc has also been actively involved in the development of the University of Toronto Hydropower Masters program.

Our congratulations go out to Marc for this deserved award!

Lake Abitibi elevation continues to increase at a rate of about 6 cm per day. This morning our measurement station in La Sarre recorded an elevation of 264.994 m (CGD). The lake level is expected to reach its maximum normal elevation of 265.390 m (CGD) by Friday, May 17th.

Spill operations have been underway for several days at our Twin Falls and Iroquois Falls generating stations and have been increased as much as possible at this time.

On Friday, May 10th, inflow conditions had peaked at 1116 m3/s and has shown signs of a declining trend. However, basin conditions remain very strong and well above normal.
