Wondering what helps keep Ontario’s drinking water safe from source to tap?

Drinking water treatment is an important part of Ontario's multi-barrier approach to safe drinking water. Because every water source is unique, treatment systems are designed to meet local needs.

Source water protection helps protect water at its source, helping ensure the highest possible water quality before it reaches a treatment facility.

🌳 Spend a morning making a difference.

Join friends, neighbours, and fellow nature lovers on October 25 as we work together to improve habitat along the Pine River.

Trees and shrubs play an important role in keeping rivers healthy. Their roots help stabilize soil, their leaves provide shade that helps keep water cool, and they create habitat for wildlife.

Grab your gloves and join us for a rewarding morning outdoors.
