ENR took immediate action upon becoming aware of the flooding. Staff flew over the Taltson River system from the dam to the Great Slave Lake river outlet to assess the extent of the flooding and the impact of the cabin and property. Staff also travelled to Fort Resolution to speak with local trappers and cabin owners to collect information on the scope and impact of the flooding on their traplines, cabin, and equipment. ENR officers visited impacted sites along with local residents to obtain firsthand insight into the impact. Because of the spring melt, we may not know the full scope of the damage until this spring.
