Preface
This project was carried out by the Economics and Conservation Branch
of Environment Canada under the sponsorship of the Office of Environment
Stewardship and the Interdepartmental Advisory Group on Water Conservation
at Federal Facilities. It shows the considerable importance attached to
water conservation and the significant role played by government
departments. The present manual, it is hoped, will have important
implications for facility managers involved in water conservation efforts,
developing resource policies, planning programs, and in evaluating current
water efficiency programs.
This project represents the combined efforts and expertise of many
agencies in the federal government. Such an undertaking would not have
been possible without the cooperative efforts of the agencies involved,
enabling information useful to themselves and other concerned parties to
be gathered. However, the ultimate beneficiary of this exercise will be
the ecosystem of Canada.
