Newline Technology is relining sewer mains in Shaunavon to continue improving Shaunavon’s infrastructure. The contracted company is currently replacing the sewer main on the crescent at 5th street west (BLUE on the map - Wednesday October 11th) and will be replacing the main in the back alley between 4th and 5th Street East between 3rd Ave and 5th Ave (GREEN on the map - Thursday October 12th). PLEASE NOTE that there can be no water usage while the crew does the replacement. Notices will be handed out to each resident to be affected door to door, and the users will only be affected the day of the replacement The steps of this project entail the insertion of a deflated tube into the original line, expanding the tube using steam, curing the outer fiberglass shell, and removing the inner part of the tube. The fibreglass material will prevent roots from penetrating lateral sewer lines, allowing them to successfully function for many years. The Town of Shaunavon offers the Lateral Sewer Line Replacement Program for property owners with lateral sewer lines that are directly connected to refurbished lines. Property owners who are eligible for this program will receive a letter indicating their eligibility in 2024. Thank you for your patience and understanding as we continuously work on improving Shaunavon’s infrastructure!
