recommendations are made by the local sub-watershed committees and are brought before the main board for approval. The Seine Rat Roseau Watershed District covers an area southeast of Winnipeg, over 7,000km2 and is home to approximately 68,000 people. The district offers a full line of water management programs with a particular focus on surface and groundwater management initiatives. One of the main objectives lies in creating water retention projects to hold back water during spring run-off to alleviate flooding downstream and provide greater aquifer recharge areas, as groundwater is a major drinking water supply to residents. Both objectives increase water quality on the surface and sub-surface overall. The district also provides funding to seal old and abandoned wells that present a point of contamination to groundwater; for livestock producers to purchase alternative watering systems & riparian fencing to keep livestock out of dugout, creeks and rivers; and to monitor well water in rural homes throughout the district are among the most popular programs.
