It is important that Town of Shaunavon residents have access to trusted, timely and accurate information to ensure their own safety and that of their family and loved ones. In response to this need, the Town of Shaunavon has chosen Voyent Alert! as the communication service provider for these kinds of events.

We emphasize to residents that 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. IMPORTANT NOTE: A Precautionary Drinking Water Advisory will be in place for the affected areas at the time that gate valves are being replaced The PDWA will be lifted (aka “rescinded”) once tests deem the water safe for human consumption, approximately 1 week from the date of water disruptions. All affected users will be notified of the advisory in place 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.
Town staff and the contracted company are working closely together to execute this program in a timely and efficient manner.
Thank you for your patience and understanding as the Town of Shaunavon works to maintain and improve the Town’s water infrastructure. Follow this Facebook Page for updates, and share this post with friends or family who may not have access to Facebook.
