We provide ongoing support and awareness to Coastal Water Suppliers Members and Associates by working in partnership with related Ministry agencies and water related organizations.
We’ve serviced Coastal and Vancouver Island water purveyors since 1971, and work in partnership with related Ministry agencies and water related organizations.
We help members access resources to improve levels of training and education for staff and board. Training sessions cover operational safety, staff development, and legal and legislative issues.
We maintain alliances with organizations like the American Water Works Association, the BC Water and Waste Association, the Water Supply Association of BC, the Small Water Users Association of BC and others.
Preserving and protecting the long-term interests of our members, we lobby government for input to legislation regarding watershed protection and management, growth management, and water licensing.
We help smaller districts with organizations that administer policies affecting those districts (e.g. B.C.’s Ministries of Environment, Health and Community Services.)
