From June through September, intermittent chlorine is used in the aqueduct to control biofilm. This process also happens to be an effective way to prevent zebra mussels from settling inside the aqueduct. The City began preparing for the possibility of zebra mussels in Shoal Lake in the 's. A system to chlorinate the intake and the aqueduct was installed in Since zebra mussels were not present, the only part of this system that has been used is the part that chlorinates the aqueduct to control biofilm.
In , we had a consultant review the existing system and evaluate the available options for zebra mussel control. This study recommended to continue with chlorination, but also recommended system upgrades to modernize the system and improve efficiency. Chlorination is a well-established technology that has become one of the most effective methods to control mussels in water intake facilities and reservoirs.
Construction of this upgrade is planned to start in If zebra mussels appear before the completion of the upgrade, we would use existing chlorine infrastructure and modify our current monitoring program. We encourage residents to clean, drain and dry all watercraft and equipment when moving between waterbodies to help stop the spread of invasive species. For more information on preventing the spread of zebra mussels, visit Manitoba.

That river drains from an area of muskeg, drawing brown, organics-laden water with it. So crews blocked the area where it enters the bay and cut a channel to drain it down to Snowshoe Bay and into the greater Shoal Lake.
That channel is what severed the reserve from everything else. Shoal Lake 40's residents once used the clean water straight from the clear portion of the lake, but over the years, development of cottages and an increase in watercraft left it tainted. On March 29, , the first flow of water from Shoal Lake arrived at the McPhillips reservoir, and distribution throughout Winnipeg began on April 5.
The reserve has no way to transport garbage or sewage off the island, so it is instead dumped in designated areas. Paramedics and home-care workers are reluctant to go into the community for fear of not being able to get across the water or back again. A kindergarten—Grade 8 school was eventually built, but those heading into high school were forced to go to Kenora, 60 kilometres away — that is, if they were able to get across to Shoal Lake 39 territory and take the access road up to the Trans-Canada Highway.
The barge ferry was started in , which made it easier to make the trek across, but the community remained restricted in what could be transported: the barge had size and weight limits, making it difficult to bring in building supplies and other freight. In winter, the ice road thickness determined the weight that could be hauled, and in spring there was always the risk of a vehicle plunging through.
It wasn't until that a running water system was built, but it was shut down seven years later due to the ongoing contamination. It's just the older people that can remember when they used to drink out of the lake, when it was pristine," said Anderson. Exhausted and frustrated, people had been relocating to Kenora and other nearby communities. According to census data from September , the band had people but just still lived on the reserve.
Ainsley Redsky, 16, said youth in Shoal Lake 40 — including herself — would suffer from depression, sometimes not coming out of their rooms for days.
It's sad. In , the federal government proposed building a bridge between the two Shoal Lake reserves, but Iskatewizaagegan voted against it, not wanting a public thoroughfare.
So in , Shoal Lake 40 focused instead on getting a road across the Falcon River outflow channel to link with the mainland and up to the Trans-Canada Highway. It lobbied and pleaded, but for decades the City of Winnipeg fought all efforts to build a permanent road, fearing development would threaten its water supply.
In , a temporary bridge over the channel was built, finally connecting the community to the mainland. It led to a rough, unpaved winter road, but it was a first taste of freedom, said Chief Redsky.
