Utilities Sector
Includes stakeholders from: Water Treatment Facilities, Wastewater Treatment Facilities,
Storm Drainage, Water Quality Commission, and Compost & Recycle.
Local utilities need to access the river to do their job. If there isn't enough water, or it becomes too
dirty, businesses will have to cut back operations.

Industry Sector

or close down. This would cost the town a lot of jobs, and a lot of money.

Agriculture Sector
Includes stakeholders from: Ranching, Feedlots, Crop Farming, Irrigation, Green Houses.
Cutting back on land use due to water shortages or quality issues would reduce product yields, and L’Eau Falls

Recreation Sector
Includes stakeholders from: Fishing, Golfing, Water Sports, Off-road Vehicles, Tourism.
If the river is polluted and there is only enough water for town residents, tourists would stop coming to L’Eau Falls for their vacations, and the town will lose out on a lot of tourist dollars.
