Convening for Action in the South Okanagan

The RDOS has identified the availability and quality of water as the number one concern of South Okanagan residents. The Water Sustainability Committee of the BC Water and Waste Association initiated a program entitled, Convening for Action in the South Okanagan. This program played a role in bringing together people with knowledge and expertise with those who seek ways to meet present and future water sustainablity challenges in their communities. The purpose of this initiative was to deliver a process where everyone had a chance to speak, see their opinions recorded and be proactively engaged to focus on results. This initiative took place in February 2005 in collaboration with the Town of Oliver.
