Description

Companies or organizations who take over 50,000 litres of water/day from a lake, river, stream or groundwater source, must obtain a Permit to Take Water from the Ministry of the Environment -with a few exceptions. Permit holders are legally required to record how much water they take each day. Data includes: * purpose * location * water source (e.g., ground or surface) * maximum amount allowed per day * permit number * expiry date of the permit [Permitted water-taking map](https://www.ontario.ca/page/map-permits-take-water) [Create a map for a water-taking application](https://www.ontario.ca/page/create-map-permit-take-water-application)
