Global Okanagan - March 13, 2024 - Environmental Flows Conference: Concern about low streamflows

More than 200 attendees from across Canada and the U.S. gathered at the Environmental Flows Conference to share the latest in environmental flow (instream flow) research, and to discuss how to support the water needs of fish and the greater ecosystem - including water for farming, for residents, and more.
This work is especially critical as we look ahead to another potential drought this summer in B.C. and face decisions about who gets water, when, and how much.
"Fish will dye, so it's very concerning. Fish need water to live." says Karilyn Alex, Environmental Flows Conference speaker and Fisheries biologist and fluvial geomorphologist with the Okanagan Nation Alliance Fisheries Department.
