Due to the extended period of hot and dry weather and the increased stress on our natural environment and resources WFN will be moving into stage 2 water restrictions effective immediately.
Stage 2 Watering Regulations are as follows:
- Sprinkling is only permitted at residential, commercial, and other non-agricultural properties as follows:
Even numbered addresses: watering is only permitted on Saturdays and Tuesdays
Odd numbered addresses: watering is only permitted on Sundays and Wednesdays
- Automatically Controlled Underground Sprinkling Systems (residential and commercial):
Properties equipped with an automated time clock sprinkler system may only sprinkle between the hours of 12 to 6 a.m. on the days permitted by the sprinkling regulations as described above
- Manually Controlled Sprinklers (residential and commercial):
Properties equipped with only manually controlled sprinkling systems, including those attached to outside taps, may only operate from 6 to 11 a.m. and from 6 p.m. to 12 a.m. on the days permitted by the sprinkling regulations as described above
WFN Utilities does have hose bib timers for those that may want one free of charge as part of our water conservation measures. Please contact the office and ask for Kevin Kingma for more information or to arrange to have one delivered and setup for you.
For any additional information or to report watering outside of the new dates and times please contact the Utilities department at 250-707-3332 or via email at
wfnutilities@wfn.ca
We would like to thank you in advance for your support and cooperation with these necessary changes
