1 Source Water Protection in BC: Challenges and Opportunities Presented to: Okanagan Water Stewardship Council Kelowna, BC January 11, 2007 Valerie Z. Cameron, P. Geo. Water Stewardship Division
2 Outline Source Water Protection in BC: the Provincial Context Okanagan Source Water Protection: the Local Context Challenges and Opportunities
3 What is Source Water Protection? Drinking water comes from surface and ground water sources Watersheds are the sources for surface water: lakes and streams Aquifers are the sources for ground water: wells and springs Source water protection involves managing activities in source water areas to protection drinking water quality and quantity
4 A bit about BC s drinking water Total population of 4.25 million 4500 permitted water systems (surface and ground water) Greater Vancouver and Greater Victoria supply 2.5 million (59%) from protected surface water supplies Of remaining 1.75 million (41%): 60% surface, 40% ground water from unprotected sources
5 BC Drinking Water Sources Surface and Groundwater Use Ground water Surface water Population Served By (BC Population:4.25 million): GVRD & CRD Other
6 Crown land Federal Private Land and Water Management in BC Challenging terrain and diverse biogeoclimatic zones 94% Crown land: multiple land use tenures 5% privately owned 1% federal
7 Auditor General s Report on Protecting BC s Drinking Water Sources Key Findings: Neglecting source protection can be costly Water source management is not integrated in BC Need better management of managing effects of other resource users on drinking water sources Absence of ground water management a problem Small water systems are particularly vulnerable
8 Drinking Water Action Plan
9 Regulatory Tools for Source Protection Drinking Water Protection Act Water Act Forest and Range Practices Act Environmental Management Act Land Act
10 Drinking Water Protection Act Contains broad powers for drinking water protection, including source water protection Drinking Water Officers can order source to tap assessments and response plans, hazard abatement or prevention orders Enables Drinking Water Protection Plans
11 Water Act Water Act primarily regulates surface water allocation 2001 amendments enabled Water Management Plans, some well protection Ground Water Regulation addressed well construction and operator certification
12 Forest and Range Practices Act Replaces Forest Practices Code Mostly results-based Designates community watersheds Sets water quality objectives Doesn t apply to private managed forest land
13 Environmental Management Act (formally Waste Management Act) Agricultural Waste Control Regulation Contaminated Sites Regulation Municipal Sewage Regulation Hazardous Waste Regulation Organic Matter Recycling Regulation Integrated Pest Management Act Allows for Area-based Plans
14 Land Act Section 15 OIC reserves Section 16 watershed reserves Section 17 notations Watershed leases eliminated in the 70 s
15 Planning Drinking Water Protection Plans DWPA Water Management Plans Water Act Area-based plans under EMA Resource Sustainability Plans/Land and Resource Management Plans Environmental Farm Plans Community-led plans
16 Other tools for source protection Science and information Assessment tools Monitoring Setting standards and guidelines Interagency cooperation Education and outreach

23 Challenges for source water protection Ensuring accountability for source protection across overlapping or conflicting jurisdictions Implementing source protection in a climate of deregulation and trend towards results-based approaches Addressing the disconnect between water suppliers responsibilities and source protection Scale of planning tools Resource constraints
24 Opportunities A water-aware public A greater emphasis on partnerships OBWB/OWSC s role in education, outreach, environmental protection and governance Source water protection in the OWSC water sustainability strategy? Provincial water strategy
