The Grand River Conservation Authority and the partners of the Grand River Water Management Plan invite you to take a short public survey aimed at gathering information about the water uses and values that matter to people across the watershed. 

As part of the process to update the 1982 water management plan, they are calling on residents and employees in the watershed for their input on the many uses and values for water that have been identified through other public processes. 

This feedback will be considered by the partners of the Plan GRCA, watershed municipalities, First Nations, the Province and Federal representatives in efforts to ensure that the watershed can remain healthy while adapting to the challenges of population growth and climate change. 

The survey is posted on the Grand River Conservation Authority website: http://www.grandriver.ca/wmpsurvey

Please note that the survey will close Friday, December 2.
