• The previous slide shows on the left, the upstream section of the fresh water Lower Churchill River at an elevation of 18m above sea level. • After dam completion, the Muskrat Reservoir will rise to 35m above sea level. • On the right, below the Upper and Lower Muskrat Falls, is the downstream section of the Lower Churchill River at an elevation approaching 0 m above sea level. • The impact of tidal/sea water influences immediately downstream from the North Spur seem to deserve more attention. • Consideration of hydraulic forces on the downstream side of the North Spur are greatly complicated by ice damming . • For a view of ice damming downstream from the North Spur see the first photo icon downstream from Muskrat Falls on Google Earth at 53 degrees 14 min 19.48 sec North; 60 degrees 46 min 38.56 sec West. 9
