Historique
The Ontario Water Resources Commission was established on May 3, 1956, following the work of the Water Resources and Supply Committee of the Department of Public Works.
From 1956 to 1964, the Commission consisted of five divisions - the Laboratories and Research Division, the Construction Division, the Plant Operations Division, the Sanitary Engineering Division (which previously formed a part of the Ontario Department of Health), and the Water Resources Division.
New divisions established between 1964 and 1972 included the Division of Finance (1964); the Division of Industrial Wastes and the Division of Project Development (1965); and the Division of Administrative Services (1967). In addition, the Laboratories and Research Division was divided to form both a Laboratories Division and a Research Division in 1961.
The Ontario Water Resources Commission reported to the Legislature through the Department of Public Works (1956-1959); the Department of Municipal Affairs (1960- 1963); the Department of Energy and Resources Management (1964 to 1971); and to the Department of the Environment (1972).
In 1972, the Ontario Water Resources Commission was amalgamated with the Department of the Environment to form the Ministry of the Environment.
