The Ontario Drinking Water Stewardship Fund (ODWSP) was launched in 2007 to support the goals of Source Water Protection

Early Actions

From 2007-2010 the program was called Early Actions. This program was available to landowners with eligible projects near municipal wells. We are winding down this program, and are no longer accepting applications.

Early Response

In 2010 the  Ministry of the environment announced the updated ODWSP program, called Early Response. Early Response targets specific areas and activities which, through scientific study are more vulnerable to contamination. Learn more about the Early Response Program
