Water Conservation Planning Guide
For British Columbia’s Communities
British Columbia is committed to a long-term approach to integrated water demand management. Now, and increasingly in the future, a comprehensive water conservation plan will be a requisite for provincial and federal infrastructure funding. A comprehensive approach to water demand management not only makes economic sense in terms of deferred costs for infrastructure expansion, it can also generate additional ecological benefits such as reduced greenhouse gas emissions from decreased energy consumption and sewage treatment. Water sustainability does not just happen. To be effective, urban water management must integrate demand management measures into comprehensive, long-term strategies.
