Water Resources

The major connecting link in a watershed or river basin ecosystem is the flow of water. The flow pattern is part of the water balance. How and where the water flows determines the quality of the water, the shape and stability of stream banks, the health and diversity of the vegetation, and the availability of fish and wildlife habitat.

Since incorporation (in 1994), the GREENLAND^® approach to water resources projects is to ensure that the operational balance of surface water, groundwater and/or coastal water systems are maintained and that interventions are made with a perspective of the entire ecosystem.

Greenland and Dr. Goss played an important role in identifying issues with the initial study proposal.

This led to the Province and Williams Treaty First Nations reaching a resolution based on manageable terms.

Thank you very much to everyone who was involved in making this happen. The report is very clear, precise, and informative. I’m pleasantly surprised at the (watermain testing) results which have eased some of my concerns regarding this pipe... Thanks again. Much appreciated.
