Abstract/Description or Keywords The RDN Water Budget project is a regional study intended as a high level water budget assessment for many of the watersheds and aquifers within the six water regions on Vancouver Island. As a result, calculations presented herein are conceptual in nature and only serve to provide an assessment of the linkages between various water resource elements. Local issues may not be fully addressed at the current scale of assessment. Water budget and stress calculations presented herein should only be considered as qualitative. The water budget estimates provide a relative comparison from region to region or aquifer to aquifer, rather than actual values of water availability or water use which are needed for quantitative land use planning and design.
