Ice jams and flood forecasting, Hay River, N.W.T. / prepared by R. Gerard and S. Stanley for Environment Canada, Inland Waters Directorate and Indian and Northern Affairs Canada, Water Resources Division. : En36-535/88-6E-PDF

"The Town of Hay River, N.W.T., is situated at the mouth of the Hay River on the south shore of Great Slave Lake. A significant portion of the Town is located on the low-lying land of the Hay River delta and is subject to severe ice jam floods every decade or so.
