Annual Support

The Department of Environment and Parks provides financial support to the LSWC each year. We have received operational support to deliver Water for Life’s Goals across the Lesser Slave Watershed. The time and effort that many GOA staff have contributed to the LSWC over the years is significant. We greatly appreciate these resources and they have added much value to the LSWC’s projects.
