Management of water in Saskatchewan
today is much more complex than in the past. Demands for water are greater than they were
even a few years ago. Water management must integrate the many demands, requirements and
benefits of the water resource for the people of Saskatchewan. The province’s
precious water resources must be managed in a sustainable fashion, to meet the needs of
current and future generations.
Water management decisions in Saskatchewan affect many agencies and levels of
government. Assignment of responsibilities between agencies is complex and often shared.
This has created the potential for conflict among the various organizations and
complicated the management of long-term water protection issues.
