Raw Water ReservoirS
The development of Raw Water Reservoirs is recommended in the Comprehensive Regional Water Plan to meet the community’s water needs.
- Here is a two page backgrounder of the project and next steps.
Progress to date:
- Phase 1 involved a Water Demand Analysis to develop a better understanding of the water supply deficit.
-
Phase 2 involved a Feasibility Study to assess all potential sites in the Chapman Creek watershed. This initial site selection led to four potential sites.
- Phase 3 involved studying these four sites in more detail and led to the recommendation of a site.
Next Steps:
- Engineering, design, technical, and environmental studies: 2020-2022
- Permitting and completion of land acquisition or land tenure as well as water license: 2021-2023
- Final engineering design and survey: 2023-2024
- Construction and commissioning: 2024-2026
