Lower than average snow pack and little real rain so far this spring has the province and many municipalities and regional districts scrambling to bring in measures to conserve water. Some areas have already enacted water rationing.
There were also some brief comments about the cost of water and how to encourage water users to conserve, given that BC has the highest water use in the country. Mention was made of water meters, a practice that many local governments are starting to install. This will be an interesting story to follow this season.
