The Provincial Ministry responsible for licensing fresh water has recently completed estimates of groundwater quantities on Salt Spring Island. This multi-agency study involved the Islands Trust since the findings will impact the Trust’s role in fulfilling its “preserve and protect” mandate. In this talk William Shulba, the Trust’s lead groundwater scientist, will review the status of various investigations aimed at preserving our groundwater resources and interpret their impact on Trust policy. 

William Shulba, P.Geo. is the Senior Freshwater Specialist at the Islands Trust. He investigates groundwater sustainability, watershed protection, policy development, and intergovernmental research in the Islands Trust area. He has a masters degree in hydrology from the University of Victoria and a BSc in geology from the University of Alberta.
