This report provides an integrated analysis of economic costs for the potential impacts of climate-change-induced low water levels, and cost-benefit
analyses of various adaptation options for six sectors of activity directly related to the Saint-Laurent River: 1) maritime transport; 2) municipal water supply and wastewater treatment; 3) ecological services and fishing; 4) recreational boating and
tourism; 5) hydropower generation; and, 6) waterfront property values. The study area covered the Saint-Laurent River between the Québec-Ontario border and Trois-Rivières.
