Reminder and Correction: Statistics Canada — 2013 Survey of Drinking Water Plants

Print this Article | Send to Colleague

In the winter of 2014 Statistics Canada will be conducting the Survey of Drinking Water Plants. This survey is a census of public drinking water plants serving communities of 300 or more people. The survey results will produce a national portrait of treatment processes and costs, and source water quality across Canada, for facilities that range from ones with complex treatment processes to basic groundwater well supplies that provide minimal or no treatment. These data will be used to track the state of source water stocks and treatment on a regional basis and will also be used in the development of environmental accounts and indicators.

Statistics Canada welcomes inquiries about the Survey — the email address for these questions was incorrect in the October issue of the Bulletin. They can be sent to environ@statcan.gc.ca.
