Lower Trent Conservation staff use an integrated, science-based approach to understanding the ecological processes and state of natural resources in the watershed. Staff can be regularly seen in action monitoring water quality and quantity through partnership programs:

• Provincial Water Quality Monitoring Network
• Ontario Benthos Biomonitoring Network
• Provincial Groundwater Monitoring Network

Did you know that together, Ontario’s Conservation Authorities monitor 1,129 surface water sites and 489 groundwater sites? Learn more about how Conservation Authorities contribute to healthy watersheds.
