SEAWA and Watershed Management
South Saskatchewan Regional Plan
The water management plan for the South Saskatchewan River recommends a balance that is broadly acceptable to the public between water consumption and environmental protection, in light of economic and social objectives and ecological requirements. The plan envisions future management in the basin combining innovative, efficient and productive water use and improved management of aquatic ecosystems. It also hopes to provide a foundation for future watershed management planning in the South Saskatchewan river basin.
On December 11th, a sub-committee of SEAWA will be meeting to develop feedback regarding the draft SSRP. Contact us if you would like to join!
Work books are available on line if you'd prefer to share your opinions directly to the ESRD.
