Newfoundland and Labrador Hydro is advising residents, cabin owners and travellers in the Jackson’s Arm and White Bay area on the island’s northwest Coast that the company is releasing water at the Cat Arm Spillway into the Cat Arm River. Furthermore, a potential for water release remains in the Victoria Lake and Victoria River area in south western Newfoundland at the Victoria Dam Spillway.

People are advised to use these areas with great caution as water levels and flows will be higher than normal and may be unpredictable.
