Province and Territory Water Efficiency and Conservation Policy Information
In 2011 and 2012 the Alliance for Water Efficiency gathered data to update its 2009 Province and Territory Information pages.
The 2009 survey questions were augmented and the topic areas expanded. Due to funding limitations, the Canadian provinces and territories were not included in the 2012 Water Efficiency and Conservation State Scorecard report. However, the information collected for Canada is posted online. Below are links to each of the provinces and territories. We are interested in keeping this information as accurate and comprehensive as possible. Please email info@a4we.org with any corrections, changes, or additions.
