The federal government is providing $117 million to help solve what it describes as the “heightening water crisis” on British Columbia’s Sunshine Coast .

The project will involve upgrading the existing water treatment plant and constructing two large-scale storage reservoirs for the Chapman Creek watershed.

The new reservoirs will provide a more reliable and sustainable supply during periods of drought.
