Download or read book Water Policy in Canada written by Mohammed H. Dore and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-03-11 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with the water policy and management in Canada. It discusses various problems and risks in the fresh and drinking water supply in the second largest country in the world. Mohammed Dore argues that water is underpriced and used wastefully in Canada. In selected case studies, he illustrates the major threats from human activity to Canadian freshwaters and drinking water resources, including manufacturing, mining, oil sands production, animal farming and agricultural use. Selected case studies include reviews of even dramatic incidences, e.g. the Walkerton tragedy of 2000, when 7 people were killed and 200 went onto permanent dialysis treatment because of water contamination with harmful pathogens. The book warns that wastewater treatment standards are often not sufficient, so that many drinking water resources are in peril of wastewater contamination. As most of the water resources are provincial responsibility, the book discusses the water management policies in the different provinces separately. Through a detailed discussion and statistical analyses, it can define water policy and management lessons that emerge from the investigated case studies. It ends by contrasting water policy and practice in Canada with the practice in some European countries.

Download or read book Integrated Water Management in Canada written by Dan Shrubsole and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-12-07 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume provides readers with an opportunity to learn from front line water managers of watershed-based agencies across Canada about integrated water management (or integrated water resource management). In common with practice in much of the world, the responsibility for implementing integrated watershed management in Canada is fragmented. Each province and territory in Canada has developed unique approaches or governance models to guide decision making in that regard. Thus, this edited volume enables readers from around the world to gain insight on the best practices in Canada for achieving success and addressing barriers to implement IWM. Although there remains non consensus about how to "best" approach river basin management, some of the main observations include: There is a need to balance a focus on "the big picture", with scoping the scale and scope of planning activities in order that feasible and effective solutions can be implemented Three types of integration are popular among the agencies included in the book: (i) among environment, economy and society, (ii) interactions between people and the environment and (iii) integration (or coordination) of administrative activities. Much more attention is required to achieving effective engagement from Indigenous communities The chapters were originally published in a special issue of the International Journal of Water Resources Development.

[...] Greater inter-agency coordination and integration of activities is required on critical issues such as watershed planning and source water protection, drinking water information management, water system assessments, increasing the capacity of private water systems and the development of strategies to discourage the proliferation of small water supply systems. [...] The action plan for Safe Drinking Water in British Columbia (action plan) was announced in June 2002, to ensure that: leadership and accountability exist in the drinking water system; drinking water is protected from source to tap in the most effective manner possible; small drinking water systems have adequate checks and balances to ensure ongoing quality and supply; and the system produces safe [...] Objectives and Scope The engagement scope and objectives were to: • determine whether the province's drinking water resources are supported by an effective performance management and accountability framework; and • assess progress achieved in implementing the actions outlined in the action plan and the subsequent progress report. [...] The MHLS, in collaboration with its action plan stakeholders, needs to take steps to increase the effectiveness of performance management and accountability of the drinking water legislation, regulations and program plans and policies to mitigate risks to drinking water quality, in particular, those risks associated with source water protection and with small and mid-size water systems.
