Water Efficient Technology (W.E.T.) Program for Business


The Water Efficiency group has launched a new program aimed at enticing any commercial, institutional or industrial sector companies to reduce their water use by providing incentives. The Water Efficient Technology (W.E.T.) Funding program offers free Water Use Reviews to these companies. In these reviews, Regional staff will help to identify potential areas where the company can save water, save money and save the environment

If the company chooses to progress further, the W.E.T. Program offers co-funding for an in-depth Water Use Audit performed by a qualified 3^rd party consultant. If the business makes the upgrades proposed from the Audit, the company may qualify for capital funding dollars to help offset the cost of implementing the water saving improvements. A few major water users in the area have already taken part in the program and are reaping the rewards. It is a win-win situation for the company and the Region. They lower their water bill and become an environmentally-conscious company, while the Region lowers the water demand.
