This Master Plan is based on general scientific and engineering knowledge of the function of river systems, applied to the Little Thompson Watershed to evaluate post-flood conditions and to develop conceptual recommendations for recovery and restoration of the river. Both qualitative and quantitative information were employed, where available, to develop a thorough understanding of the system, and to support long-and short-term recovery and planning decisions. The following sections provide a general description of the watershed and highlight areas where, based on the lack of available data, additional information and analysis are recommended to improve the understanding of the watershed and river system.
