About RSM
Building a More Qualified and Better-Informed Flood Resilience Ecosystem
Regional Stormwater Management exists to help Ontario build more consistent stormwater and flood-resilience capability. We translate technical guidance into clearer education, stronger training, transparent qualification pathways and useful public resources.
Our role
Help people understand the system, build capability and connect to authoritative sources.
RSM sits between information and implementation. It does not issue municipal approvals, replace professional licences or act as an emergency authority.
RSM focuses on
- Education and public understanding
- Standards and best-practice guidance
- Training and professional development
- Certification and qualification pathways
- Municipal and conservation-authority connections
- Research translation and innovation
A different kind of website
RSM is designed as an ecosystem, not a catalogue of services.
The site begins with shared problems and guides users toward knowledge, standards, training, certification, official local resources and implementation capability.
Ontario-wide mission
