The Nottawasaga Valley Conservation Authority is your public agency dedicated to the preservation of a healthy environment. As your partner, the NVCA provides the expertise to help protect our water, our land, our future.

OUR VISION:
"Conserving our Healthy Waters"

OUR MISSION:
"Working together to value, protect, enhance and restore our watershed resources for a healthy, sustainable future"

To achieve our mission, we have five major objectives to consider, including:

• Protect, enhance and restore water
• Protect, enhance and restore land
• Protect life and property from flooding and erosion
• Provide educational and recreational opportunities for the public
• Partner with our Watershed Municipalities, provincial/federal agencies,   Conservation Ontario, and other interested stakeholders to achieve mutual goals.

Our watershed is a large geographic area, approximately 3700 sq. km, with jurisdiction in 18 municipalities (click here to view our watershed map). Based on the size of the municipality, one or more representatives is appointed as a member of our Board of Directors. Our members have a very important role and responsibility to represent the interests of their municipalities, consider the interests and needs of the Conservation Authority, and establish an effective reporting relationship with their municipal council and staff.
