Province of Alberta's North Saskatchewan River Basin Long Term River Network Program

The Province of Alberta monitors surface water quality in streams and rivers across the province on behalf of Albertans. River water quality monitoring consists of core long term monitoring programs, as well as short-term focused studies with defined scientific questions. The Long Term River Network (LTRN) is a well-established core provincial monitoring program for Alberta’s major rivers, several of which cross interprovincial and international boundaries. Further information is available in “A five-year provincial water quality monitoring, evaluation and reporting plan for lotic systems”, found here: https://open.alberta.ca/publications/9781460141366.
