Who is responsible for making sure my water is safe?
The ultimate responsibility for the provision of safe drinking water supplies lies with your drinking water supplier. He/she is responsible for complying with the requirements of the Drinking Water Protection Act and Drinking Water Protection Regulation and, in particular, for ensuring that water quality is monitored, and treated if necessary, and notifying the public when there is a potential or actual problem with drinking water. If you have concerns about your water supply and do not know your water supplier, contact your drinking water health authority contact, who can provide you with some assistance.
