Mississippi Valley Conservation (MVC) is a local, watershed management agency delivering services and programs to help protect and manage water and other natural resources in the Mississippi River watershed. Using an integrated watershed management approach, the conservation authority works with stakeholders in the watershed to balance the needs of the community with the needs of the natural environment. Learn more about MVC and Ontario Conservation Authorities.

A watershed is the area of land that drains into a waterbody. Located in eastern Ontario, the Mississippi Valley watershed covers an area of 4,450 km2.
