This project will build on the work done by the Grimshaw Gravels Aquifer Management Advisory Association. Our objective is to identify risks to this valuable water source, prioritize the risks and then develop mitigative strategies in order to maintain this resource.

Grimshaw Gravels Aquifer Source Water Protection Plan
Official release!
The plan is officially released and now we are working on implementation. Stay tuned to learn how you can help maintain the source water that is the Grimshaw Gravels Aquifer.
Come to the open house and talk with us. There is also a survey where you can provide input.
The Project Team continues to work on the draft Source Water Protection Plan and is excited to be planning for public engagement on this plan.
More engagement opportunities will be coming in late winter/early spring 2019.
