Drinking Water Source Protection

One of the roles of the North Bay-Mattawa Conservation Authority over the next several years is to coordinate the development of a Source Protection Plan for the five municipal drinking water systems and a well cluster in our watershed. Source Protection planning is a derivative of Ontario's Clean Water Act and is fully funded by the Province of Ontario.

The NBMCA is committed to working with the municipalities, various stakeholders and the general public to ensure that the Source Protection Plan is relevant at the local level and that our drinking water sources are protected now and for future generations.
