interests concerning the supply of water from the Musquash Watershed. The City
Solicitor provided an overview of the Province's control of the Watershed advising that
should the City decide to proceed with the transfer it would be necessary, in his opinion,
that the transfer include an agreement with the Province which would establish our
interests associated with the infrastructure, for example, the rights of access which the
City would have to the infrastructure and to the water within the watershed; the rights of
members of the public to the infrastructure and to the watershed generally; the City's
exclusive right to draw water from the watershed and to use and dispose of it in any
manner it deems appropriate; the quantity of water the city may draw from the
watershed, the exclusive rights of the City with respect to any power that is generated
using that water; the controls that will be imposed on trespassers and the responsibility
accepted by the Province with respect to environmental or other liability issues that may
arise as a result of anything that the Province has done or failed to do respecting the
infrastructure or the watershed generally. The City Solicitor further explained that the
City will, if it decides to acquire the infrastructure, be exposed to potential liability with
respect to claims arising from nuisance or negligence such as if a dam were to break
causing damage or injury. The City would also be responsible to comply with all
applicable Federal and Provincial legislation.
