2024 Water Conservation Plan
James Suffredine • May 17, 2024
The Provincial Government has requested that municipalities conserve 5-10% of normal expected water use this summer.
As Albertans are all well aware, drought has been a major topic of concern locally as well as around the Province. The Minister of Environment has requested that all municipalities work to plan ways to conserve between 5 and 10% of normal water usage in preparation for what is anticipated to be a dry summer. The Magrath Town Council has passed the Water Shortage Response Plan policy and passed a Motion that places the Town of Magrath at the Level 1 - Voluntary - Demand Reduction water restrictions.
Below are tables for both potable and Irrigation water uses under a Level 1 water restriction.

The yellow areas are places where the Town has contracted services to control the gopher populations in the area. Holes are baited with Chlorophacinone set down in the hole to avoid accidental contact. Each baited hole is also marked by a flag for a regulated period to alert those walking in the area so that they can keep their pets away from the identified spots.
