Small Water Users Association of BC

The Small Water Users Association of BC is a new non-profit society dedicated to serving the interests of small water systems (1 to 300 connections) throughout British Columbia.

ORIGINS

In the spring of 2003, discussions between a number of small water system managers in the west Kootenays identified the need for a new association. The existing water associations in BC were primarily serving the interests of larger water systems (municipalities and large improvement districts). Smaller systems lacked access to information on a broad range of topics, such as technology options and sources, regulatory requirements, government assistance programs, operator training and certification and other matters of interest.

As of October 2007, our Association membership totaled 242 small water systems throughout British Columbia, as well as 65 affiliates. The water system members included 40 Improvement or Irrigation Districts, 25 water users’ communities, 42 utilities, 10 Regional District systems and 125 private systems.
