The water data available has generally been collected by departmental staff to provide both baseline and issue specific information to the department and to the general public. Often this data has been contained within public data reports or consultants' reports but until now has not been easily accessed by the general public outside of these reports. The data available in this system includes both historical data and data being collected as part of current monitoring programs. Some of the parameters are from field instruments and others are laboratory analyses of grab water samples. Current analyses of water samples are completed by the Provincial Analytical Laboratories, a SCC accredited facility.
