Abstract/Description or Keywords What is the Community Watershed Monitoring Network?

It's a partnership between the RDN's Drinking Water and Watershed Protection (DWWP) program, the Ministry of the Environment (MoE), Island Timberlands LP, and many amazing community watershed stewardship groups in our region. The RDN provides the equipment and works with the MoE to complete annual training and data analysis. The MoE contributes expertise in water quality testing, deciphering gathered data and guidance in program direction. Island Timberlands sponsors the lab analysis costs for Quality Assurance and Quality Control, loans volunteers' safety gear and provides access to the upper watersheds. Dedicated community groups donate their time, attending annual training sessions, calibrating equipment and getting out on their local streams to collect water quality data. water quality, hydrometric, monitoring
