The B.C. government is investing $100 million in maintaining the health of the province’s watersheds.

Monday’s funding announcement at the B.C. legislature coincided with the launch of an engagement process to co-develop with First Nations a watershed security strategy intentions paper.

"B.C.'s watersheds are the lifeblood of this province, and for too long, not enough has been done to protect them," said Nathan Cullen, Minister of Water, Land and Resource Stewardship. The watershed security strategy paper will outline potential priorities for government. Possible initiatives include strengthening existing water data and the tools used to monitor demand and supply, and enhancing local watershed governance.
