Commissions and Committees of the Watershed
The Commissions and Committees of the Watershed are auxiliary bodies linked to the Watershed Councils, of a temporary or permanent nature, at the sub-watershed level or smaller hydrological units. They are intended to address problems that require specific or specialized actions due to the complexity of the matter. They are made up of federal public servants and up to three representatives of the users of the sub-watershed or hydrological unit.
