BC Agriculture Council WATER LICENSING UPDATE
- ALL NON-DOMESTIC WELL USERS MUST NOW BE LICENSED.
Deadline for waived application fee has been extended to December 31, 2017 (previously March 1, 2017)
What does this mean for Farmers? - The Water Sustainability Act and new regulations were brought into effect on February 29, 2016. This legislation requires all non-domestic groundwater users, including farmers and ranchers, to apply for a water license.
Existing groundwater users will have a 3-year period to apply for a license (Feb 29, 2016 - Mar 1, 2019). Licenses will also be required for any newly constructed wells from 2016 onward, with the exception of wells used only for only domestic purposes. Existing well owners that apply for a license in the first two years (2016 and 2017) will be exempted from application fees (until December 31, 2017). Applications received from January 1, 2018 and onward will need to pay the additional application fee.
Why license? It's the law! - Protect your rights by licensing your well. Licensees will have a right to use water based on their date of first use. Their rights will be protected based on the current First-in-Time-First-in-Right (FITFIR) priority water allocation system.
Under the FITFIR system, licensees with earlier licence dates (senior licensees) have priority over later licence dates (junior licensees) for accessing water. These rights are important during times of drought or water scarcity.

Livestock Tag Reader Rebate program
The ministry has recently launched the new Livestock Tag Reader Rebate program, funded by Growing Forward 2. The program targets small livestock producers in B.C. that do not meet the eligibility requirement of $30K in annual farm income of the ministry’s On-Farm-Food Safety and Traceability program, also a GF2 program. The new program intends to help small livestock producers with the purchase of a livestock tag reader and associated software so they are prepared to meet the anticipated federal regulations on livestock movement reporting.
The program will reimburse up to 70% of the cost of these readers to a maximum of $3,500 per applicant. Eligible expenses are livestock tag readers (hand-held or panel readers), reader installation, related software and related equipment training. Readers must be listed on the CCIA’s Conditionally Verified Readers list. For a link to the list and more information including an application form, visit http://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/industry/agriculture-seafood/programs/food-safety/livestock-tag-reader-rebate-program. The livestock applicant must also be registered in the ministry’s Premises Identification program. Registration for BCPID can happen simultaneously as the application to the Tag Reader program.
Spread the word on the new program. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

Interested in storing more water on your farm?
Watch our video on developing Agricultural Water Storage!
Cowichan valley agricultural producers have a new video resource to assist them in addressing water management complexities on their farms.
The groundwork for the video was laid at last year’s Islands Agriculture Show (2016), where the BC Agriculture and Food Climate Action Initiative worked with local partners to offer a farm tour and two panel sessions focused on drought, water supply, water management and developing farm-level water storage. The tour featured visits to 4 local farms that showcased different types of production systems utilizing differing water sources, water storage and water delivery systems. The panels included subject matter experts from the BC Ministry of Agriculture, the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations, and agricultural producers.
Footage from the panels and farm tours were incorporated into a water storage and management video and is available for viewing through the following link. www.bcagclimateaction.ca/regional-project/cw08/
This video was developed as a part of the Agricultural Water Storage and Management Knowledge Transfer project which is filling a knowledge gap that was identified through consultation with a wide number of producers in the Cowichan Valley. During previous workshops on Extreme Events and Preparedness in the Cowichan, producers identified effective drainage systems and on-farm water storage as important elements of adaptation – in some cases essential for mitigating the impacts of extreme events (i.e. flooding and extended dry periods). Since installation of appropriate water infrastructure can be a challenge for individual producers, knowledge transfer – including demonstration and improving available informational resources – was seen as a necessary support.

Bats and White Nose Syndrome
(WNS) WNS is an invasive fungal disease that has killed 7 million bats in eastern North America since arriving here in 2006 and caused emergency listing of Little Brown and Northern Bats in Canada due to 90% to 100% declines at some hibernacula. WNS was detected in Washington State in 2016 and is likely to spread to BC, putting our bats at risk.
We are requesting that the public report and submit dead bats to the BC Community Bat Program for WNS analysis. help us to increase awareness by sharing the following information bulletin. https://news.gov.bc.ca/releases/2017ENV0013-000301
