Nottawasaga Valley Conservation Authority (Nvca)

The Nottawasaga Valley Conservation Authority (NVCA) is a public agency dedicated to creating a healthy environment and communities through innovative watershed management. We are committed to protecting watershed communities from natural hazards like flooding and erosion. We work to preserve and enhance watershed land and water resources. We connect our community with their watershed through nature-based educational and recreational opportunities. As one of the 36 conservation authorities legislated by the Ontario Conservation Authorities Act of 1946, we are governed by a board of directors appointed by our 18 member municipalities. Critical to our success is our strong partnerships with our member municipalities, government agencies, community partners and local landowners. NVCA’s jurisdiction extends over the 3,700 km2 of the Nottawasaga Valley watershed, excluding the lands within CFB Borden. The Nottawasaga River and its tributaries run from highlands on the Oak Ridges Moraine, Niagara Escarpment and Oro Moraine through the internationally significant Minesing Wetlands before flowing into Georgian Bay.
