Artificial land drainage in Manitoba: history, administration, lawElliott, William P. 01 January 1977 (has links)
A history of the development and organization of artificial land
drainage in Manitoba and the involvement of statutory authorities in land
drainage is reviewed. The Department of Mines, Resources and Environmental
Management Water Resources Division, conservation districts and municipal
governments divide jurisdiction and responsibility over watercourses in
Manitoba. The Prairie Farm Rehabilitation Administration and the Manitoba
Department of Agricultural Technical Services Branch provide conditional
assistance to farmers contemplating slough drainage. The Agricultural and
Rural Development Agreement and the Fund for Rural Economic Development
Program contain comprehensive drainage programs in Manitoba.
The common and statute law concerning drainage is reviewed. Legal
drainage procedures for individuals, rural municipalities, conservation
districts and the Province of Manitoba are outlined. In addition, procedures
for obtaining drainage assistance from the Manitoba Department
of Agriculture and the Prairie Farm Rehabilitation Administration are
also presented.
Many statutory provisions concerning drainage in Manitoba are
obscure and inconsistent. Clarification of these provisions is sorely
needed before drainage law can be used as an effective tool in a wetland
preservation effort.
