What is the Nicola Water Use Management Plan?
The Nicola Water Use Management Plan is under development. In 2004, a large group of people from different backgrounds and sectors came together to begin a dialogue about developing a plan for the Nicola watershed. The goal of the project is to provide a means (water use management plan) whereby all water users in the watershed will be provided with a safe, reliable and equitable supply of water for generations to come. The planning process is being carried out in stages, with the target of mid-2008 for completion of the plan.
