Water Sustainability Temporary Protection Orders - Public
Temporary Protection Orders (TPOs) are ministerial orders implemented in times of water scarcity and/or drought to protect streamflow availability. TPOs were implemented under Section 9 of the Fish Protection Act prior to 2016, but are now implemented under Section 86, 87 and 88 of the Water Sustainability Act. This dataset is a compilation of data hosted on TPOs to date across British Columbia and is maintained by the Watershed Stewardship and Security Branch within the Ministry of Water, Lands and Resource Stewardship. The purpose of the dataset is to communicate to water users when and where TPOs are/were in effect.
