Abstract
This submission responds to the Manitoba Clean Environment Commission request for public and agency input into their review of "appropriate ammonia, nutrient, combined sewer overflow and microbiological limits on effluents from the City's systems necessary to protect the aquatic environment and recreational activities, including Lake Winnipeg" authorized by the Manitoba Minister of Conservation, October 2002. It focuses specifically on the nutrients Nitrogen (N) and Phosphorus (P) introduced into the Red River from point and non-point sources and their impacts on the Lake Winnipeg ecosystem.
