Frank Lake (Alberta) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Frank Lake (Alberta)
Frank Lake is a restored wetland located east of High River, Alberta, south of Calgary, and about south of Blackie. The lake is controlled by Ducks Unlimited Canada for wildlife management purposes, and is an Important Bird Area. It is one of four Alberta lakes with the same name.〔(Natural Resources Canada - Geographical Names of Canada ) Retrieved April 29, 2012〕 ==Conservation and management==
The lake has had a history of years of being completely dry, and years of being flooded. The main goal of managing Frank Lake is to ensure that the lake is a permanent waterbody, which will improve wildlife habitat. Water control measures have been implemented to help ensure that water levels are maintained. Measures include the building of dikes and water control structures as well as the building of a pipeline from High River to channel treated effluent from the town of High River and a local food processing plant. Water quality is regularly monitored. Nesting boxes, nesting platforms, and rock islands are among the structures placed around the lake to encourage nesting and improve habitat. The Important Bird Areas program considers Frank Lake to be the most important wetland in southwestern Alberta for the production of waterfowl and other water birds.〔(Important Bird Areas in Canada - Frank Lake ) Retrieved April 29, 2012〕
