Tel.: +1 306 690 0573. E-mail address: [email protected] (S. Rayne). Management of groundwater quantity and quality is an important resource development issue in Canada [1]. Overuse and/or contamination of groundwater supplies has the potential to restrict future use of this resource [2]. In the western Canadian coastal province of British Columbia, increasing attention is being paid to the scientific and legislative/regulatory aspects of surface and groundwaters. Aquifer types in the province have been classified [3] and various investigations have employed case-study type approaches to determine the status of groundwater resources, developed rigorous quantitative models of representative aquifers with predictive capacity, and attempted to assess future changes due to natural and/or anthropogenic forcings (see, e.g., ref. [4-16] and references therein). In our previous work, we examined temporal trends in groundwater monitoring wells for the western Canada prairie province of Saskatchewan [17]. We found that groundwater resources in this region generally appear to be increasing over time and do not appear to be under current threat from depletion. As part of the current study, we have conducted a similar investigation on time trends for groundwater monitoring well levels in British Columbia. -
