The Upper Assiniboine River Basin Study Saskatchewan, Manitoba and the government of Canada have signed a formal agreement to develop a water management plan for the upper portion of the Assiniboine River Basin. The three-year study is designed to assess the basin's water resources and the impact of current and future development activity. All aspects of water management, and related land uses must be considered when decisions affecting the resource are made. The study is designed to develop key information upon which these decisions can be based.
Public involvement is a vital component of the investigation.
The study is guided by study co-directors appointed by Saskatchewan and Manitoba. For more information on the Upper Assiniboine River Basin Study, visit the SaskWater web site.
