Sturgeon River Watershed Alliance

The Sturgeon River Watershed Alliance (SRWA) is a municipally-supported watershed stewardship group established for the Sturgeon River subwatershed. It partners with the North Saskatchewan Watershed Alliance (NSWA).

The SRWA is guided by a Steering Committee made up of elected municipal officials from the Sturgeon subwatershed, and a Technical Advisory Committee made up of environmental groups and staff, along with researchers.

SRWA WATERSHED MANAGEMENT PLAN 2020

The SRWA used the 2012 State of the Sturgeon River Watershed Report  as a basis for technical studies and research needed to develop the 2020 Sturgeon River Watershed Management Plan for this region. They were also guided by the broader goals identified in the NSWA's Integrated Watershed Management Plan.
