Preface The Industrial Water Survey, 2005 was conducted by Statistics Canada in partnership with Environment Canada and Health Canada and is the successor to the Water Use Survey last conducted by Statistics Canada for Environment Canada in 996. This survey will be a biennial survey with the next version collecting data for 2007.The survey gathered information on the intake and discharge of water by industrial users in manufacturing industries, mining industries and thermal-electric generating industries. The information collected included the sources of water used, what purposes industry used the water for, whether or not water was re-circulated or re-used, where the water was discharged and what treatments were used for water brought into the establishment and discharged from the establishment. Also, water acquisition costs, treatment costs and operating and maintenance expenses related to water intake and discharge were collected. It is intended that the results of this survey will be used in the development of environmental accounts, aid in tracking the state of stocks of water and contribute to national indicators of water quality.the data were analyzed and results presented at the most detailed geographic level wherever it was possible without compromising confidentiality, i.e. the regional level for thermal-electric generating stations, provincial level for mines and the major river basin level for manufacturing. 6 Statistics Canada Catalogue no. 6-40-X
Highlights Total water intake in 2005 by all three industry groups surveyed was 40.4 billion cubic metres, with the thermal-electric power producers withdrawing almost 80% of this total, manufacturing industries taking just over 9% of the total and the mining industries responsible for % of the total water intake. Total wastewater discharge in 2005 for the three industry groups was 8.6 billion cubic metres, with the thermal-electric power producers accounting for almost 8% of this total, manufacturing industries discharging just over 7% of the total and the mining industries responsible for almost 2% of the total water discharge. The thermal-electric power producers accounted for about 44% of the 9.6 billion cubic metres of re-circulated water noted in the survey while manufacturing industries recycled about 5% of this total and mining industries the remaining 2%. Total water costs for the three major industry components measured in the survey were $2,808.4 million. Water acquisition costs accounted for $,25.7 million while operating and maintenance costs related to water treatments and the recirculation of water accounted for the balance of the costs. Note: For purposes of the Industrial Water Survey, Thermal-electric Power Generation is defined as Fossil-Fuel Electric Power Generation (NAICS 222) and Nuclear Electric Power Generation (NAICS 22). The mining industries surveyed were the coal mines (NAICS 22), metal mines (NAICS 222) and non-metallic mineral mines (NAICS 22, excluding NAICS 222 - sand, gravel, clay, and ceramic and refractory minerals mining and quarrying). The manufacturing industries are defined by NAICS. Further information on coverage can be found in the section Concepts, Methodology and Data Quality. Statistics Canada Catalogue no. 6-40-X 7
Analysis Important note The methodology of the 2005 Industrial Water Survey is described elsewhere in this report. It should be noted that there were significant differences in how this survey was conducted as compared to previous versions of the survey. As a result, one should exercise caution when comparing the results of this survey with the 996 version of the survey or with even earlier versions of the survey. This report refrains from most comparisons. Some of the most prominent methodological differences that may result in problematic comparisons are:. The use of the North American Industrial Classification, 2002 (NAICS) in 2005 as compared to the use of the Standard Industrial Classification in previous versions of the survey. Differences in industry definition may result in a break in the comparability between the different time periods. 2. Samples for the three components of the survey (manufacturing, mining and thermal-electric power producers) were designed separately and independently for the 2005 version of the survey. The thermal-electric power component was a census, while the manufacturing and mining components of the survey used a stratified, simple random sample design. In previous versions of the survey, the samples were selected more subjectively.. An edit and imputation system was designed specifically for the 2005 version of the Industrial Water Survey by Statistics Canada methodologists, allowing for the imputation of missing data and the production of estimates for the total population. In previous versions of the survey, the final estimates were a summation of the sampled data. No attempt was made to estimate for the un-sampled portion of the population. Manufacturing industries Intake water Sources, purpose and treatment Total water intake by Canadian manufacturing industries in 2005 was 7,778.9 million cubic metres. As indicated in Chart, five industries accounted for over 8% of the 2005 total intake. At.4% of the total, the largest quantity of water withdrawal was made by the paper industries. This was followed by the primary metal industries at 20.6% and the food industries at 7.6% of the total water intake by manufacturing industries. Significant withdrawals were also made by the chemical industries at 6.8% of the total and the petroleum and coal industries at 4.7%. 8 Statistics Canada Catalogue no. 6-40-X
Industrial Water Use 2005 Chart Water intake in manufacturing, 2005 All others 7% Petroleum and coal products 5% Paper industries 2% Chemical industries 7% Food industries 8% Primary metals industries 2% Regionally, Ontario manufacturers accounted for 44.8% of the total water intake while Québec took another 2.6%. Manufacturers in British Columbia had a share of 6.0% of the total water intake by the manufacturing industries and the Prairie Provinces registered 8.7% of the total. Water intake by manufacturers in the Atlantic accounted for 6.9% and the Territories took 0.%. Water drawn by manufacturers from the Great Lakes basin accounted for 7.4% of total water intake while manufacturers withdrew another 6.7% from the St. Lawrence River basin. Water withdrawn from the Pacific Coastal basin represented 5.7% of total water intake and water from the Fraser Lower Mainland basin, another 5.4%. Direct surface freshwater (i.e. rivers, lakes, etc.) withdrawal was the source of 6.% of manufacturers water supply while another 25.5% was delivered from public utilities (many utilities also source their supply from surface freshwater). The paper industries accounted for 49.8% of the surface freshwater withdrawals and the primary metals industries took another.8%. Significant water intake from surface freshwater was also made by the chemical industries (8.4%) and the petroleum and coal industries (5.6%). One-third of all water intake from municipal sources by all manufacturers was taken by the food industries. Water intake in Ontario was responsible for 50.9% of the total surface freshwater withdrawals. Another 20.8% of surface freshwater withdrawals came from Québec and 6.% were withdrawn in British Columbia. Process water was the largest initial use of water, accounting for 52.7% of total intake. Cooling, condensing and steam generation accounted for another 4.7% of intake, with sanitary and other uses making up the balance. The paper industries used 69.% of their water for processing and 28.2% for cooling, condensing and steam generation. The food industries used 6.6% of their water intake for processing. The other three major water-using industries (primary metals, petroleum and coal and chemical) used most of their new water for cooling and condensing purposes. Many manufacturing establishments need to treat their water before it can be used in their processes or for cooling, condensing or steam generation. Often they must use several treatment processes, such as screening, followed by Statistics Canada Catalogue no. 6-40-X 9
Industrial Water Use 2005 filtration and chlorination, prior to using the water. This can result in the same intake water being counted several times for each treatment type, which must be kept in mind when examining Table 4. Tables Table group Characteristics of water use in manufacturing industries, by water use parameter, 2005 Table - Industry group Table -2 Provinces and territories Table - Major river basins Table group Water intake in manufacturing industries, by source, 2005 Table - Industry group Table -2 Provinces and territories Table - Major river basins Table -4 Purpose of initial use and industry group Table 4 Intake water treatment in manufacturing industries, by type of treatment and industry group, 2005 Water recycling In this survey, water recycling is defined as the process of using the same water more than once by the facility. The water must leave a system or sub-system and re-enter it or be used in a different sub-system. The recirculation of water reduces the need for the facility to take in new water. The 2005 survey indicates,57.9 million cubic metres of water was reported as recycled water. The primary metals industry accounted for 6.8% of this volume of recycled water. The paper industries reported recycling volumes representing 29.4% of the total and the petroleum and coal industries had another 5.0% share of the total. The recycle rate for manufacturing (recycled water as a percentage of intake) stood at 4.2%. The petroleum and coal industries indicated a recycle rate of 8.% (the same water may be recycled many times, resulting in recycle rates > 00%) while the primary metals industries had a recycle rate of 77.0%. Tables Table group Characteristics of water use in manufacturing industries, by water use parameter, 2005 Table - Industry group Table -2 Provinces and territories Table - Major river basins Table 5 Water recirculation in manufacturing industries, by purpose and industry group, 2005 Wastewater Treatments and points of discharge Total water discharged by manufacturers was 6,727.8 million cubic metres. Most of this water (67.7%) was discharged to surface freshwater bodies and to public/municipal sewers (20.2%). The balance was discharged to tidewater, groundwater or other points. The manufacturing industries discharging the most water were the same industries that withdrew the most water (paper industries, primary metals industries, food industries). This also holds true when looking at the distribution of water discharge by geographic location in that the Great Lakes basin, 0 Statistics Canada Catalogue no. 6-40-X
Industrial Water Use 2005 the St. Lawrence River basin and the Pacific Coastal basin not only saw the largest water withdrawals, but also the largest discharges. Respondents were asked to report only the highest level of treatment their discharge underwent. This was done in order to eliminate double-counting of water that underwent more than one treatment type and to highlight the most advanced treatment. Of the water discharged by manufacturers, 5.% was not treated before being released. The most advanced level of treatment for 9.2% of the total discharge was primary treatment while 7.8% of the total effluent underwent secondary or biological treatment as its highest level of treatment before discharge. Only 7.8% underwent tertiary or advanced treatment. The paper industries accounted for 6.6% of the total water discharged by manufacturers. Almost 94% of their discharge went to surface freshwater bodies and almost 85% of their discharge underwent secondary or biological treatments. The primary metals industries were responsible for another 20.% of the total water discharged by manufacturers, and like the paper industries, almost 94% of their effluent was discharged to surface freshwater bodies. Of this discharge, 42.4% was not treated, 24.9% underwent primary or mechanical treatment and 2.7% underwent either secondary or tertiary treatments. The food industries were the next largest group discharging water, representing 6.% of the total water discharged. Of their discharge, 42.5% went to public utilities, the main reason that 50.5% of their discharge was not treated.

The consumption rate expresses this consumption as a percentage of water intake. In 2005, water consumption for manufacturing industries was estimated at,05. million cubic metres or.5% of the total water intake of 7,778.9 million cubic metres. The food industries were the largest consumers of water, consuming 272.7 million cubic metres or 25.9% of the total consumed water. The primary metals industries were the next largest consumers of water at 28.4 million cubic metres or 22.7% of the total consumed water. Chemical industries and paper industries were also significant consumers at 4.% and 2.8% respectively. However, when examining the consumption rates of the different industries, the beverage industries ranked highest. Their consumption of 8. million cubic metres of water resulted in a consumption rate of 50.6%. Statistics Canada Catalogue no. 6-40-X
Industrial Water Use 2005 Tables Table group Characteristics of water use in manufacturing industries, by water use parameter, 2005 Table - Industry group Table -2 Provinces and territories Table - Major river basins Water costs Total water costs in the manufacturing industries were $2,57.7 million. The 2005 survey collected cost information on the acquisition of water, on the treatment of intake water before use, on wastewater treatments and on costs related to the recirculation of water and is illustrated in Chart 2. Excluded from the determination of water costs were capital costs or depreciation of self-supplied water acquisition facilities. The costs of water acquisition were defined to include amounts paid to public utilities for water, amounts paid to provincial or territorial ministries for a licence to take water and for operation and maintenance costs incurred in the upkeep of self-supplied water acquisition facilities. The cost of wastewater treatment was defined as the operation and maintenance costs of in-house treatment, though it may include sewer surcharges by the public utilities. Chart 2 Water costs in manufacturing by cost component, 2005 Recirculation % Discharge treatment 29% Acquisition 49% Intake treatment % The cost of water acquisition in 2005 was $,240.5 million. The largest portion of the acquisition costs was attributable to operation and maintenance costs, which accounted for 7.4% of the total costs. Payments to public utilities were responsible for another 26.4% of the total acquisition costs while licensing fees contributed only 0.2% of the total. At the national level, water acquisition was responsible for 48.9% of the total water costs. However, acquisition costs in Ontario accounted for 64.5% of total water costs in that province. This proportion was significantly higher 2 Statistics Canada Catalogue no. 6-40-X
Industrial Water Use 2005 than the other provinces. If the cost data for Ontario is removed, the ratio of acquisition costs to total water costs in manufacturing industries for the rest of the country was only 24.0%. Costs for treatment of intake water before it was used totaled $289.9 million. Over 8% of these costs were borne by the four dominant users of water, with the petroleum and coal industries paying 29.4% of the total, paper industries at 2.8%, chemical industries at 6.6% and primary metal industries spending.8% of the total costs for treatment of intake water. The costs related to the recirculation of water were $275.5 million in 2005. The paper industries spent $78.9 million on the recirculation of water and the primary metals industries spent $47.5 million. The total 2005 cost of wastewater treatment was $7.9 million. Of this total, the paper industries spent $265.2 million or 6.2% of the total. The primary metals industries spent $69.4 million or 9.5% of the total and the food industries accounted for $6. million or 8.4% of the total spent on the treatment of water discharge. The chemical industries spent $56.4 million or 7.7% of the total.

Industrial Water Use 2005 Mining industries Total water intake by the mining industries surveyed in 2005 was 458.9 million cubic metres, with most of this water (75.5%) being withdrawn by the metal mines. When this volume of intake water is combined with the 2,057.7 million cubic metres of water recycled by the mining industries, gross water use was 2,56.6 million cubic metres. The recycle rate for the mining industries was 448.4%. Total discharge was 60.6 million cubic metres of water. This quantity of water is larger than the volume of intake because of the necessity for many operators to de-water their mines of groundwater in order to carry out their operations. As a result, water consumption is not calculated as the arithmetic formula to calculate consumption (discharge minus intake) would yield a negative number. The source for most of the water intake by the mining industries (76.2%) was self-supplied surface freshwater. Another 9.2% of the intake was sourced from groundwater. Process water, at 82.% of the total intake, was the major use for water in the mining industries. Water used for cooling, condensing and steam only accounted for 8.2% of the intake water. Sanitary service and other uses accounted for the balance of the intake. Of the 60.6 million cubic metres of wastewater effluent, 7.4% was discharged to surface freshwater bodies. Another 5.8% was sent to tailing ponds with most of that volume (76.2%) originating with the metal mines. Discharge to groundwater accounted for 8.6% of total discharge. Of the total discharge, 60.9% was not treated before leaving the operation. Primary or mechanical treatment was the highest level of treatment for 0.% of the water discharged by the mining operations. Of the remaining discharges, 4.% underwent secondary or biological treatments and 4.7% tertiary or advanced. Total costs for water in the mining industries were $7.5 million. Water acquisition accounted for 25.9% of these costs and costs associated with the recirculation of water were responsible for another 6.4% of the total cost. Treatment costs for intake water were.9% of the total and treatment of effluent was 25.8% of the total.

Industrial Water Use 2005 the total water intake, 92.% came from surface freshwater bodies and 98.% of the intake was used for cooling, condensing and steam. Total discharge of water was,247. million cubic metres, of which 96.% went to surface freshwater bodies. Most of this water (84.5%) was not treated before discharge. Total costs of water for the thermal-electric power generators were $99.2 million with 4.% of these costs used for the acquisition of the water. Treatment of intake water before use accounted for 4.9% of the total costs and treatment of water before discharge another 9.% of the total costs. Costs related to the recirculation of water were responsible for the remaining 5.0% of the costs.
