Abstract: Ice has been considered in the past to be a particular problem to be dealt with by hydraulic engineers, once all the other aspects of an engineering design were covered. It was seen as a secondary factor that would require only small corrective measures. In the very last few years, there has been a few Canadian developments where ice has become the dominant factor and had to be taken into account right at the start of the feasibility studies. In many cases, the way of dealing with ice has been termed the technique of ice management. We will describe briefly in this summary paper three recent examples of ice management in major Canadian projects.
