3 It s Just A Little Rain Right? 3

4 Water Intake Suitability Why does suitability matter? Times are changing Weather events are changing 4

5 Planning is Only Part of the Equation 5

6 Reality Hits Hard 6

7 What About Safety? 7

8 How About a Lack of Water? 8

9 Outline Scope of presentation Background Regulations and water intakes Choosing a suitable location and intake design Summary Q & A Water licencing updates 9

10 Scope of Presentation 50,000 ft view - Regulatory obligations - Water licencing updates Intakes used for hydraulic fracturing projects Intake infrastructure 10

11 Background Industry activity is increasing Access to water is crucial for successful development of an asset Secure water supply is integral for long-term planning 11

12 Regulations and Water Intakes Government of Alberta - Alberta Energy Regulator Water Act Public Lands Act - Alberta Environment and Parks Depending on jurisdiction Government of Canada - Fisheries and Oceans Canada Fisheries Act Request for Review Changes to the Fisheries Act - Transport Canada Navigation Protection Act 12

13 Water Licencing Updates Directive released in Feb 2018 Licence approvals - Reporting - Water tracking - Development plans Term Licence Allocation Volume Point of Use Area Point of Diversion 13

14 Water Licencing Updates Updated Instream Objective Schedule for the Smoky River Licence conditions are expected to be general and flexible QAES recommendations and intake operational plans Permanent intakes should be considered, in certain situations 14

15 Choosing a Suitable Location and Intake Design Step 1 - Desktop Feasibility Study Step 2 - Field Study and Drone Reconnaissance Step 3 - Hydraulic Modelling and Fish Habitat Assessment Step 4 - Intake Design Consideration Step 5 - Operational Plan and Risk Mitigation 15

16 Step 1 Water Sourcing Desktop Feasibility Study 16

17 Water Sourcing Desktop Feasibility Study How much water is likely required? Desktop feasibility assessments on multiple sources Multiple parameters to consider - Site ranking 17

18 Step 2 Water Sourcing Field Study and Drone Reconnaissance 18

19 Water Sourcing Field Study Field assessments Site validation Risk identification 19

20 Water Sourcing Drone Reconnaissance 20

21 Water Sourcing Drone Reconnaissance 21

22 Water Sourcing Mosaic/Orthophotography 22

23 Step 3 Hydraulic Modelling and Fish Habitat Assessment 23

24 Hydraulic Modelling 24

25 Habitat Assessment 25

26 Step 4 Intake Design Consideration 26

27 Intake Infrastructure and Design Intake design selection Temporary - Rest on bottom - Floating Permanent - River bed infiltration gallery - River bank infiltration gallery A water allocation of approx. 4,000,000 m 3 means pumping at m 3 /s 24/7/365 Some components of temporary water intakes - Fish screen assembly - Submersible or land based pump - Support legs - Anchoring system Some components of permanent water intakes - Pumphouse building - Caisson - Collector pipe - Infiltration gallery (incl. fish screen) - Back-flushing system 27

28 Temporary Rest on Bottom Intakes Installation and removal multiple times per year 28

29 Temporary Rest on Bottom Intakes 29

30 Temporary Floating Intakes 30

31 Temporary Floating Intakes 31

32 Permanent River Bed Infiltration Gallery 32

33 Permanent River Bank Infiltration Gallery 33

34 How could this have been avoided? 34

35 Step 5 Operational Plans and Risk Mitigation 35

36 Operational Plans (e.g. Temporary Intakes) Installation - Method Helicopter Crane (stand alone or flat-bed truck) Excavator Boat (if floating) Hand-load (least likely option) - Fish screen and anchoring system - Sediment and erosion control measures - Navigational safety measures Operation - Maintenance schedule Removal - Weather monitoring / Emergency response plan - Freeze-up - Licence expiry On-shore anchor Instream anchor 36

37 The Future is Bright Temporary diversion licences for short-term water needs Term licence approvals for long-term planning Temporary and permanent intakes are suitable solutions Suitable solutions IF river conditions, design, and operational plans are considered 37
