Bradwell Reservoir
Description
Bradwell Reservoir was created in 1967 with the construction of two dams — Bradwell West Dam at 3.7 m (12 ft) high and Bradwell East Dam at 5.8 m (19 ft) high. The total water volume at full supply is 4,440 dam (3,600 acre⋅ft). Water is supplied via the aqueduct from Lake Diefenbaker, which is about 100 kilometres (62 mi) to the south-west. Upstream from Bradwell Reservoir is Bradwell National Wildlife Area and Blackstrap Lake.
Access to the reservoir is from Bradwell Reservoir Beach at the north-east corner, north of Bradwell East Dam. A short road connects the beach to Highway 763. Recreation activities, such as boating and fishing, are permitted.
Fish species
