The WCFF continues to promote water efficiency within the federal government and various initiatives have given the Advisory Group added impetus. Among other things, the Action Plan calls for governments to show leadership by reducing water use in their own facilities, as well as publicly funded facilities, and to adopt consistent policies regulations and codes concerning water efficiency. Through its activities, the WCFF helps the federal government meet its objectives and obligations under these initiatives.
Membership is voluntary.
Members have policy or operational backgrounds related to water efficiency. The long-term goal of the WCFF is the promotion of water use efficiency within the federal government by members individually and collectively. The Advisory Group focuses on sharing knowledge and experiences, developing common tools, coordinating activities and providing advice. A major activity of the Advisory Group was the development of the Water Conservation Plan for Federal Government Facilities and the accompanying Manual for Conducting Water Audits and Developing Water Efficiency Programs at Federal Facilities . The Plan and Manual were launched at Canada s first National Conference and Trade Show on Water Conservation in Winnipeg in 1993.
