The PPWB was supported by its Executive Director and staff of the PPWB Secretariat from 1969 until 1995, at which time the functions of the Secretariat were integrated into the Transboundary Waters Unit of Environment and Climate Change Canada. The day to day operations of the Board remain the responsibility of the PPWB Executive Director who is supported by the PPWB committees and staff of Environment and Climate Change Canada.
