Extractions: Noise Water is essential to human life and to the health of the environment. As a valuable natural resource, it comprises marine, estuarine, freshwater (river and lakes) and groundwater environments, across coastal and inland areas. Water has two dimensions that are closely linked - quantity and quality. Water quality is commonly defined by its physical, chemical, biological and aesthetic (appearance and smell) characteristics. A healthy environment is one in which the water quality supports a rich and varied community of organisms and protects public health. Water quality in a body of water influences the way in which communities use the water for activities such as drinking, swimming or commercial purposes. More specifically, the water may be used by the community for: supplying drinking water recreation (swimming, boating)

Staff work with member governments and others involved in water quality protection to implement policies and recommendations in the plan. Through implementation of the plan, staff assist with the coordination of watershed and subwatershed plans between, and within, the major watersheds in the region. SEMCOG supports inter-municipal coordination in developing and implementing watershed-based management plans. SEMCOG offers to assist with the facilitation of plan preparation and development, particularly those common elements required by the state or federal mandates. More specific examples of SEMCOG's water quality efforts follow: Watershed Management Working with member governments, staff provide technical assistance on watershed management issues, including partnering with counties and local governments on water quality issues within their jurisdictions. One example of this is the staffing and assistance provided to the Macomb/St. Clair Inter-County Watershed Management Advisory Group.

The Environmental Sciences Team has been undertaking several monitoring projects involving drinking water, private water supplies, recreational water and swimming pools. This project is shared with other London councils. There has been an annual increase in compliance to current levels of over 99.8%. Thames Water has delivered significant water improvements in London in the last 10 years. Legislation governing water supplies continues to get stricter and it is good to note that Thames Water has a programme in place to meet the required improvements. A downloadable report is available here (please see the guidance available on this site for help with downloading documents in Adobe PDF format). The regulation of deep well water supplies is a statutory function under the Private Water Supply Regulations 1991. Currently there are six active private water supplies, both commercial and residential, under our jurisdiction. The trend is the bigger supplies with full treatment do seem to comply with the Regulations but the smaller supplies without treatment do not comply with all the parameters. Enforcement actions including notices may be required for some of the supplies. Property Address Abbey House 215 Baker Street London NW1 6XA

A sub-committee established under the Canadian Council of Ministers of the Environment (CCME) Water Quality Guidelines Task Group was responsible for it's development. For a technical manual on the CWQI and other information please refer to the CCME website A water quality index is a means to summarize large amounts of water quality data into simple terms (e.g., good) for reporting to management and the public in a consistent manner. Similar to the UV index or an air quality index, it can tell us whether the overall quality of water bodies poses a potential threat to various beneficial uses of water, such as habitat for aquatic life, irrigation water for agriculture and livestock, recreation and aesthetics, and drinking water supplies.

Back to Prairie Provinces Water Board Page In 1969, the governments of Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba and Canada signed the Master Agreement on Apportionment. The primary purpose of that agreement was to provide for the sharing of water in eastward flowing streams that cross interprovincial boundaries. The Master Agreement also established the Prairie Provinces Water Board to oversee the Agreement. While the authors of the Master Agreement were primarily concerned with water quantity, they also recognized the potential importance of water quality. Consequently, the Agreement states that interprovincial water quality problems are to be referred to the Board for consideration. Over the years the PPWB has developed an active water quality program, including monitoring at 12 PPWB monitoring stations. However, given the increasing importance and the complexities of both water quality issues and how to respond to them, the Board considered it necessary to better define its roles and responsibilities in the area of interprovincial water quality matters. In recent years the Prairie Provinces Water Board has worked towards more integrated ecosystem and watershed approaches in dealing with environmental issues. Complementing these approaches is the recent adoption by governments of the source to tap, multi-barrier approach to protecting drinking water for Canadians. The multi-barrier approach highlights the importance of protecting the lakes, rivers and aquifers which are the sources of our drinking water, as well as ensuring effective treatment and distribution systems.

Extractions: Back to Regional Water Activities page The Souris River Bilateral Water Quality Monitoring Group was established on October 26, 1989 under the Canada-United States Agreement for Water Supply and Flood Control in the Souris River Basin . The willingness of the United States to make a financial contribution to the Rafferty-Alameda water control project in Saskatchewan, in exchange for flood control benefits, led to the signing of the Agreement between the two countries. The Agreement, developed to encourage cooperation amongst governments in dealing with matters of common concern, provided operating and maintenance plans for the Rafferty-Alameda project. It enabled the exchange of funds, reporting procedures, compensation and dispute-resolution measures. It also specified that water quality objectives would be co-operatively developed for the Souris River. The Bilateral Water Quality Monitoring Group is responsible for interpreting and exchanging data, and preparing an annual report on Souris River water quality. The Group is also responsible for developing recommendations to governments on the monitoring program and establishing water quality objectives at the two boundary crossings of the Souris River.

Text Only SEARCH Environment ACT: ACT Water Quality Report '98-'99 Home Air and water Water Environment ACT: ACT Water Quality Report '98-'99 Environment ACT undertakes a water monitoring program for the ACT which includes water quality and streamflow monitoring. This information is used to determine whether waters in the ACT are of adequate quality and if the management strategies used to achieve or maintain such water quality are adequate. This report provides the ACT community with the results of the program and the level of compliance with the ACT Water Quality Standards. Water quality is monitored in the major urban lakes (with the exception of Lake Burley Griffin, a Commonwealth responsibility) and Burrinjuck Reservoir which is immediately downstream of the ACT. The major rivers and some urban streams are also monitored. River flow is measured at a number of sites throughout the ACT. Rainfall for the period was above the long term average. As a result, streamflow was also higher than for last year and has had observable effects on water quality in some areas with elevated levels of suspended solids and turbidity. The drought caused a reduction in surface vegetation leaving soils prone to higher erosion. The increased rainfall and corresponding runoff has facilitated this erosion. The report uses the median value for the year as the measure of the average condition. The condition of water quality at the monitoring sites is assessed by comparison of the median value with concentrations listed in the water quality standards. For flow dependent indicators a flow concentration relationship has been used to determine compliance with the water quality standards.
