Council Prohibits Industrial, Commercial, and Agricultural Use of Remote Bulk Water Stations
Measure protects community water reserves for emergencies
PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT:
Due to the higher than anticipated volumes leaving the Bulk Station, this puts the Community as a whole at risk of leaving the storage capacity low in case of an emergency.
As such, it is the Council’s direction to not allow any Industrial, Commercial/Agricultural users at all Remote Bulk Water Stations including but not limited to Marten Beach and Flatbush.
All Non-Residential Users should now find other means for sourcing water. There are other Bulk Water Stations within the MDLSR they can utilize, that are not Remote Bulk Water Stations. All Bulk Water Stations are accessible by Industrial users if they have an active Utilities Account (this will be effective July 14, 2025).
“Remote Bulk Water Stations” means a Bulk Water Station where water is hauled to these stations via tanker trucks.
If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to call us at (780) 849-4888.
Thank you for your cooperation.
