Hi ONEIG members,
A friendly reminder to act now to add your name to help protect Ontario's fragile water supplies from over-extraction!
Registered nurse and environmental advocate extraordinaire Sue Munro has put together a comment for the Environmental Registry of Ontario's Draft Water Quantity Management Implementation Guide and is inviting individual nurses and concerned individuals to add their names to the statement she will submit.
Specific asks include prohibitions on issuing water taking permits in areas of severe ongoing drought and stricter measures to restrict non-compliant water-taking operators.
Please take a moment to add your name before February 4th to the comment and share the sign-on link so other interested folks can do the same.
Consider adding your designation (RN, RN student) when you enter your name on the change.org page so you can be identified as such when the comment is submitted to the Ontario Government.
Thank you everyone!
Your ONEIG team
