Credit Valley Conservation
The Credit Valley Conservation (CVC) is a Conservation Authority responsible for the protection and management of the Credit Valley watershed, surrounding the Credit River from its headwaters above the Niagara Escarpment to the point at which it meets Lake Ontario at Port Credit, Mississauga. The CVC receives its funding from both provincial and municipal sources, as well as self-generated user fees and other service fees.
The CVC was founded in 1954 when much of the area surrounding the Credit River was still used for rural agriculture and pasture. Since then, suburban sprawl has surrounded the river within the municipal boundaries of Mississauga and Brampton.

In 1999, 21% of the watershed was developed, and by 2020, 40% of the watershed will be developed (based on approved development and the official plans of the municipalities).〔
