Government Affairs

The GAC monitors and reviews existing and proposed legislation, regulation, and policies in the environmental field with specific emphasis on water resource-related issues, communicates with all levels of government, and disseminates pertinent information to WEAO membership.

The Government Affairs Committee is open to members from the water and wastewater environment industry with an interest in government interaction.  Our mission is to provide input into environmental regulation formulation and be recognized as a technical resource to government regarding policies that preserve and enhance Ontario’s water environment.
