The Provincial Groundwater Program originated in 1961 when the Water Act was revised to enable the licensing of groundwater. The primary goals of the Groundwater Program are to increase the understanding of groundwater resources in British Columbia, and the sustainable management and protection of groundwater resources. There is an ongoing need to improve scientific knowledge and monitoring of aquifer characteristics, groundwater availability, and groundwater interaction with surface water. This knowledge is central to the provincial review of groundwater license applications in accordance with the 2016 Water Sustainability Act (WSA) and supports the goals of sustainable allocation and use of groundwater resources and science-based groundwater policy development. This compendium is published under the Water Science Series to bring together a compilation of groundwater science and monitoring projects supported by the province during the 2022-23 fiscal year. The intent is to communicate to a wide audience, the nature of the projects undertaken and an overview of project results.
