 Water supply In Japan, tap water is strictly controlled under the Water Supply Act, which regulates all water supply systems, the construction of water supply facilities, as well as hygienic measures. In recent years, over 98 percent of the Japanese population had access to drinkable tap water. Most of the tap water was supplied using waterworks, while a smaller amount was supplied with small-scale water supply systems as well as private water supply systems.

 Wastewater management and water pollution In recent years, over 92 percent of Japanese citizens were served by wastewater treatment systems, with sewer lines representing the most widely accessed wastewater treatment facilities.
Water pollution has become an environmental issue worldwide. In Japan, marine pollution is mostly caused by oil and waste, often disposable plastic waste. To counteract water pollution, the Japanese government started to invest in pollution control technologies, domestic wastewater treatment systems, as well as educating the public and businesses about the importance of reducing, and recycling waste.

Average Daily Water Demand per Capita | Squamish Community DashboardThis indicator reflects total water consumption (residential commercial, institutional and industrial) in cubic litres divided by population per day.About this target:The District is working towards reduction of average daily litres per capita (L/c/d) water consumption by 15% by 2031 from the 2014 rate of 564 lL/c/d (Squamish Water Conservation Plan 2015). The 2031 target is 479 L/c/d.Analysis:In 2024, 4,744,398,754 cubic meters of water were consumed in the District of Squamish which makes an Average Day Demand (ADD) of 445 L/c/d (below the annual target reduction to 514 L/c/d). Since 2014, the ADD has decreased an average of 12 L/c/d per year over the last 10 years, which is on track to meet and exceed the District’s Water Conservation Plan reduction target of 5.0 L/c/d each year, and overall 15% consumption reduction by 2031 to 479 L/c/d.2021 - Community growth and development activity continued to drive increases in water consumption. People working remotely / working from home may have changed water use patterns. An Average Day Demand (ADD) of 478 L/c/d was recorded, which was a 7 L/c/d increase over 2020, and 51 L/c/d less than, and surpassing the target ADD for 2021 of 529 L/c/d. The heat dome of June 2021 set a new max day demand value for our water system of 19,855 m3/day.2022 - An especially challenging year from a water conservation standpoint. The weather was exceptionally hot and dry from July through October (drought conditions for much of the Province, e.g. Sunshine Coast Regional District on stage 4 water restrictions for several months). Community growth and development activity driving increased water consumption. A lower ADD than 2021, and nearly as high for max day demand as in 2021 (19,242m3/day).2023 - Another challenging year for water conservation in the District of Squamish. Extremely hot and dry conditions were observed from May to July, and like 2022, the heat continued through September. Continued community growth and development also drove an increase in total consumption. ADD decreased to 462 L/c/d, but in July of 2023, a new high was set for max day demand for our water system of 21,166 m3/day.Reason for monitoring:Reducing water consumption preserves the finite water supply, protects ecological integrity, delays costly infrastructure upgrades, treatment and pumping costs, and reduces greenhouse gas emissions.
