The Town of Shaunavon has formulated a tentative schedule to initiate the Gate Valve Replacement Program over the coming weeks. Replacements will occur on July 27th through August 17th, 2023 with the affected areas scheduled in the colour-coded map below. Water services for properties in the affected areas will be disrupted intermittently for up to 3-4 hours at a time while gate valve replacements are underway. Please note that these are approximate dates and areas highlighted based on how efficiently the replacements can be done. If there are any changes to these locations or dates due to project barriers or disruptions, we will post updates on the Town of Shaunavon Facebook page and website.
The map below demonstrates the approximate areas that will experience water interruptions during replacements: CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD THE MAP AND TENTATIVE SCHEDULE

**IMPORTANT NOTE: A Precautionary Drinking Water Advisory will be in place for the affected areas at the time that gate valves are being replaced, and will be lifted once tests deem the water safe for human consumption (Approx. 1 week after the replacement date). All affected users will be notified of the advisory in place with an official letter from the Water Security Agency and will be updated when the Precautionary Advisory for their area has been lifted. **
If residents and businesses have any questions regarding the Precautionary Drinking Water Advisory, please contact the Saskatchewan Health Authority at (306) 778-5280. Helix Construction and the Town of Shaunavon team are working closely together to execute this program in a timely and efficient manner.
