Drinking Water Source Protection
Trent Conservation Coalition Source Protection Region
What Is Source Protection & Who Does It Involve?
The Clean Water Act, 2006 has been passed by the Ontario legislature to assist communities with protecting their municipal drinking water supplies at the source. Through source protection planning, communities have identified potential risks to local water quality and water supply, and have created a plan to reduce or eliminate these risks.
The task of developing a plan involved watershed residents working with municipalities, conservation authorities, property owners, farmers, industry, health officials, community groups, and others. The Source Protection Committee oversaw the process of developing the Drinking Water Source Protection Plan.
We all have a role to play in caring for our water. If we want clean water tomorrow, we need to protect our sources of water today. For more information, please visit the Government of Ontario Source Protection Website.
