Goal 7: Share Information

The Committee of Groundwater (COG) has undertaken a number of projects over the years to evaluate transboundary aquifers or other groundwater issues that are relevant for the Prairie Provinces Water Board. In 2009-2010, a contract was issued to compile a water well database that includes historical water levels and other information for wells across the Prairie Provinces.
