CONSERVATION ONTARIO

Ontario's Conservation Authorities 2023 Watershed Report Cards provide a ‘check up' on the health of many of Ontario's Watersheds. They track and report on the surface and groundwater quality as well as the conditions of our forests... The results of this information can be used by Conservation Authorities and other practitioners, all levels of government, industry and environmental agencies to help conserve, restore and protect the natural resources that support us... Natural ecosystems such as forests, wetlands and lakes provide us with a wide variety of benefits which, in turn, support us in many different ways. Watershed monitoring data is used for many purposes, such as to identify problems and target actions, to provide input for tools such as models, and to support scientifically-based decision making for preserving or improving these ecosystems.
