Conserve water as construction on Kincardine reservoir commences

The Municipality of Kincardine is asking residents in the Huronville subdivision, and those along the pipeline to Inverhuron to conserve water over the coming month as phase two of work on the reservoir begins next week.

Crews will begin work on Monday, Oct. 17 with completion expected on Nov. 25.

Over that six-week stretch, residents in the former Town of Kincardine will be serviced by the Township of Huron-Kinloss’ drinking water system. In order to make sure there’s enough water for all, the municipality asks that impacted residents avoid activities like watering lawns, filling pools or hot tubs, and pressure washing.

Also consider limiting laundry, reducing shower times, and reprogramming water softeners to recharge less.

Project updates will be available on the municipality’s website and through social media channels. Anyone with questions or concerns may contact the Municipality at 519-396-4660 ext. 2.
