Watermain flushing maintenance - Starting Monday, September 16th, 2024 |
As part of our regular maintenance program, the District's Engineering and Public Works Department will be conducting watermain and hydrant flushing from September 16, 2024 until the end of October. This maintenance improves the quality and service of the water system and ensures the proper operation of hydrants and watermains. While the water is safe, the flushing could result in cloudy or coloured water, which will clear if a cold water tap is run for a short time. It's recommended customers check their water for rust prior to use each day as discolouration of laundry, etc. could occur. The District would like to thank all customers affected for your cooperation and patience during this necessary maintenance work. If you have any problems or need assistance related to flushing, please call 705-645-2100. |
Drinking Water Quality Management System (QMS) |
The District's Drinking Water QMS Operational Plan was written to meet or exceed the requirements of the Ministry of the Environment and Climate Change's prescribed standard and is applicable to the management and operation of the District's water treatment and distribution systems. The development and continual improvement of the plan will help ensure that all regulatory requirements are met and that consumers can be confident that their drinking water will continue to be protected through the effective application of QMS. To request a copy of the District's Drinking Water QMS Operational Plan, please email publicworks@muskoka.on.ca |
Operational performance of our drinking water systems in Muskoka, as demonstrated by the Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks’ drinking water system inspection reports, have consistently achieved 100%.
