COUNCIL'S VISION FOR THE WATER SHED
The Bow River Basin is conserved and protected as a fragile and unique resource and recognized as our lifeline. Multiple uses are balanced, ensuring the needs of all stakeholders are met, while maintaining a healthy ecosystem.
There are many stewardship organizations, government bodies, community groups, academic institutions, and industries that operate within the Bow River Basin and share a common goal:to improve the management and protection of water resources in the Bow River Basin.
Bow Basin Watershed Management Plan
The success of the Province of Alberta‘s Water for Life strategy depends upon collaborative partnerships to develop a new vision of sustainable watersheds. In delivering these Water Quality Objectives, our Steering and Technical Committees have achieved an unprecedented breakthrough in shared-governance and shared-vision for our precious lifeline.

Groundwater Permitting and Pricing in Canada
The importance of groundwater is not restricted to the quantities in which it is used, or to the steady growth in its use, but also to the particular people it serves and the areas where it is used.The close relationship between groundwater and surface water, for example the fact that a decline in groundwater will reduce surface flows, is not universally understood or appreciated.
Annotated Resource for Watershed Planning
This report is intended to capture the "essential elements" of watershed planning in Alberta. The research for this project casts a broad net to explore elements included in other watershed management frameworks
Strategies To Integrate Water and Land Use Planning
We applaud the Public Policy Research Institute’s examination of the critical linkages between land use and water planning, particularly in the fast-growing American West. Increasingly, leaders in this challenging landscape must consider how to guide development to ensure sustainable use of our limited water resources..
