Little Campbell Watershed Society

The Little Campbell Watershed Society focuses on activities to preserve, enhance and restore fish, wildlife, water resources and green space within the Little Campbell River Watershed.  Local residents meet the 2nd Wednesday of February, April, June, September and November at 7pm at the Semiahmoo Fish and Game Clubhouse, 1284 184 Street, Surrey.

The diverse flora and fauna of the Little Campbell River, including its wild salmon species, depend on healthy habitat to survive.  This includes a good supply of clean water.  The current impacts of licensed water extraction on water volumes, combined with population pressures and forecast effects of climate change, create serious threats to the health of the river.  Water quality in the Little Campbell and marine waters of Semiahmoo Bay face challenges from the cumulative impact of both point (focused) and non-point (diffuse) sources of pollution.  Key examples include storm water run-off from settled areas, insensitive agricultural practices and failing septic systems.  Urbanization and increasing pressure from development results in alteration or loss of habitat.  If the changes are too extreme, ecosystem health will disappear.
