  • What We Do
    Metro Vancouver is responsible for providing a reliable supply of safe, high-quality drinking water to our member local governments. In turn, local governments distribute the water to residents and businesses.
  • The Regional System
    Metro Vancouver uses a system of watersheds, dams, treatment facilities, reservoirs, pump stations and water mains to transmit water to local governments for distribution to residents and businesses.
  • Drinking Water Management Plan
    The Drinking Water Management Plan sets the direction and priority for regional drinking water initiatives.
  • Reports & Resources
    Find plans, annual reports, and resources on water conservation, watershed management, water consumption, and water quality.
  • Resources for Local Governments
    Find resources for local governments, including operations and maintenance information, and policy and best practices guides.
  • Campaign Materials

    Metro Vancouver creates campaign artwork to share with other local governments. Use or adapt these art files in your program. Find materials to support the lawn watering regulations and water conservation.

  • Regional Water Development Cost Charge
    Metro Vancouver is pursuing legislative changes with the Province to enable development cost charges (DCCs) to be collected to pay for regional water infrastructure. Updates to this process, including draft rates and engagement events will be posted on the DCC project webpage.

Metro Vancouver acknowledges that the region’s residents live, work, and learn on the shared territories of many Indigenous peoples, including 10 local First Nations: Katzie, Kwantlen, Kwikwetlem, Matsqui, Musqueam, Qayqayt, Semiahmoo, Squamish, Tsawwassen, and Tsleil-Waututh.

Metro Vancouver respects the diverse and distinct histories, languages, and cultures of First Nations, Métis, and Inuit, which collectively enrich our lives and the region.
