This project team was formed in June 2010 to improve understanding and management of non-point source pollution. This project builds on two recommendations from the Council’s Healthy Aquatic Ecosystems team and is tasked with completing four key tasks set out in their Terms of Reference:
First, the team will prepare a working definition of non-point source pollution to facilitate shared understanding of the definition and its intent. Second, conduct an assessment of non-point source pollution management in Alberta. Third, assess the policy, practices and regulatory tools that are used to manage non-point source pollution. Fourth, evaluate the state of implementation of policy, practices and regulatory tools for reducing or controlling non-point source pollution and offer recommendation that provide directional advice on how to better manage non-point source pollution.
