Kingston – Cataraqui Conservation is extending its Shoreline Conditions Statement today, advising municipalities and the public about water levels on Lake Ontario and the upper St. Lawrence River.

Lake Ontario water levels are expected to remain relatively stable or continue a slow decline over the coming weeks. However, higher water levels are possible if wetter-than-average weather and water supply conditions return.
By way of explanation, the International Lake Ontario – St. Lawrence River Board (ILOSLRB), which manages Lake Ontario outflows and forecasts water levels, reported the following in its July 13, 2026, briefing:

• The lake-wide average water level of Lake Ontario has decreased two centimetres to 75.37 metres since Thursday, July 9
• If outflows continue to match or exceed net total supplies, Lake Ontario water levels are expected to remain stable or gradually decline in the coming weeks
