Plains Midstream Canada Donates $3K to the Authority’s Water Quality Monitoring Program
Strathroy, ON – Today, Plains Midstream Canada donated $3,000 to the St. Clair Region Conservation Authority (SCRCA) to offer support to its Water Quality Monitoring Program. The SCRCA’s Water Quality Monitoring Program studies and reports on the water quality of streams and rivers in the watershed.
“Through this program, we monitor surface water quality by regularly measuring water chemistry and studying organisms at monitoring stations throughout our region. The data we collect and analyse allows us to track changes to water quality and helps us to prioritize areas in need of action,” said Erin Carroll, Manager of Biology for the SCRCA.
“As part of our commitment to be an environmentally responsible operator beyond our day-to-day business, we are proud to support organizations like the SCRCA that have missions to protect and conserve the environment,” said Nigel Trim, District Manager for Plains Midstream Canada.
“We are very pleased to partner with Plains Midstream Canada,” said Steve Arnold, Chair of the SCRCA, “These funds will be a great help in our efforts to strive for healthy watersheds.”
