Water conservation advisory ends for Regina, Moose Jaw
A voluntary water conservation request from the cities of Regina and Moose Jaw is no longer in effect.
Residents had been asked to conserve water late last week and into the weekend due to an 'issue' at the Buffalo Pound Water Treatment Plant (BPWTP) as work continues on a renewal project that is expected to be completed in 2026.
The City of Regina says it now plans to resume standard services including street sweeping and the reopening of spray pads.
'The City will continue to monitor the upgrades at BPWTP and implement future measures, including the use of emergency water wells. While voluntary water restrictions are no longer needed, residents are encouraged to continue practicing water conservation habits,' a City of Regina news release said.
In a similar release, the City of Moose Jaw said all of its affected operations including street sweeping will also resume on Monday.
