A manuscript of a report for the Game and Fisheries Branch of the Department of Mines and Natural Resources, dated August, 1948 and compiled of data gathered in May, July, and August of 1947. The report examines the potential effects of the Manitoba Central Basin Project on the birds, fish, and "fur animals" along the Saskatchewan River, and includes information on topography, geology, soils, climate, hydrology, and vegetation, as well as a description of the project, and conclusions and recommendations. 48 b&w numbered and captioned photographs, primarily of terrain and river-related facilities and activities, have been mounted onto various pages, and a large fold out map of the Manitoba central basin is laid-in after the last page.
