Cortes Currents
Studying The Water Budget For Quadra Island

Roy L Hales/ Cortes Currents - ICAN's water security team and the We Wai Kai First Nation have embarked upon an exploration of Quadra Island's water systems. 
While this is a Quadra study, everything they are doing is applicable to Cortes and every other British Columbian island where there is a sizeable population. They are offering a model of how we can prepare for the future.  
 “The project started a number of years ago, really centered on the concerns of local people on Quadra about the nature of their water supply. People were really worried about what was going to happen with both climate change, whether it's going to be getting hotter (particularly in the summers) and with development. Every new person that moves on to the island usually sinks a well. If they sink a well, they're pulling quite a bit of water out of the aquifer. We wanted to know, would the aquifer actually meet our needs? Also, what needs does the environment have? And what will happen when things like climate change influences the availability of water,” explained Colin Chapman, who, together with his partner Claire Hemingway, is a key leader in this project.  
"We were the grant writers behind the project. Both of us have PhDs in biology. I was at McGill University for a number of years, and the University of Florida. Claire was working for the National Science Foundation in the U. S.  I'm a tropical biologist, so I have a lot to learn about BC and BC systems, but I'm learning fast."   
 "Every time you brush your teeth, take a glass of water, or go to the bathroom, you're using water out of the aquifer. Just imagine an island where water became scarce. We'd all have to not water our gardens. We'd be rationing how we would actually use water, and it just wouldn't be as pleasant as it is now."  
"We use water a lot. The average household uses over 300 gallons a day. So we really have to be concerned about having enough water to meet our needs.” 
"Claire and I just moved here a couple of years ago.  We bring  some scientific knowledge about aquatic systems and we bring abilities to write grants." 
"We heard the concerns of local people. We looked for grants that we could write and  we teamed up with Wei Wai Kai, particularly Jason Price."   
"It's a concern, of course, of the band. So we teamed up with them, and  wrote a series of grants." There are three components to the grant. Cortes Currents will be looking at mapping wetlands and well monitoring in subsequent broadcasts. Colin and Claire are involved with monitoring the rainfall and streams.  
Colin Chapman: "We're trying to figure out a water budget for the island.
