Rainwater harvesting in Canada (original) (raw)

About DBpedia

Rainwater harvesting is becoming a procedure that many Canadians are incorporating into their daily lives, although data does not give exact figures for implementation. Rainwater can be used for a number of purposes including stormwater reduction, irrigation, laundry and portable toilets. In addition to low costs, rainwater harvesting is useful for landscape irrigation. Many Canadians have started implementing rainwater harvesting systems for use in stormwater reduction, irrigation, laundry, and lavatory plumbing. Provincial and municipal legislation is in place for regulating the rights and uses for captured rainwater.

In addition to low costs, rainwater harvesting is useful for landscape irrigation. Many Canadians have started implementing rainwater harvesting systems for use in stormwater reduction, irrigation, laundry, and lavatory plumbing. Provincial and municipal legislation is in place for regulating the rights and uses for captured rainwater. Substantial reform to Canadian law since the mid-2000s has increased the use of this technology in agricultural, industrial, and residential use, but ambiguity remains amongst legislation in many provinces. Bylaws and local municipal codes often regulate rainwater harvesting. Multiple organizations and companies have developed in Canada to provide education, technology, and installation for rainwater harvesting. These include the Canadian Association for Rainwater Management (CANARM), Canadian Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC), and CleanFlo Water Technologies. CANARM is an association that prioritizes education, training and spreading awareness for those entering the rainwater harvesting industry.

L'eau de pluie peut être utilisée à plusieurs fins, notamment pour la réduction des eaux pluviales, l'irrigation, la lessive et les toilettes portatives. En plus des coûts bas, la collecte des eaux de pluie est utile pour l'irrigation des terres. Des lois provinciales et municipales sont en place pour réglementer les droits et les utilisations de l'eau de pluie captée. Depuis le milieu des années 2000, il y a eu une réforme substantielle des droits de propriété du Canada, mais il y a encore beaucoup d'ambiguïté dans la législation de nombreuses provinces. Plusieurs organisations et entreprises se sont développées au Canada pour fournir éducation, technologie et installation pour la récupération de l'eau de pluie. Ceux-ci comprennent la Canadian Association for Rainwater Management (CANARM), Canadian Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC), et CleanFlo Water Technologies. La CANARM est une association qui donne la priorité à l'éducation, à la formation et à la sensibilisation des personnes entrant dans l'industrie de la collecte des eaux de pluie. (fr)
