Chéticamp Flowage

Chéticamp Flowage is a reservoir of Victoria County, in north-eastern Nova Scotia, Canada. It was created when the Nova Scotia Power Corporation placed the D-1 Dam across the Chéticamp River about 3 kilometres (1.9 mi) west of Chéticamp Lake as part of the construction of the Wreck Cove Hydroelectric System.
