As part of the commissioning process the pipeline connecting the City of Lloydminster source potable water to the Town of Marshall was turned on and the existing wells were turned off. The system is operating normally and sampling is acceptable within the permit to operate. As expected, some reaction is occurring for a slight aesthetic color variation as the water blends in the reservoir and this may continue for a couple of weeks as the water works itself through the distribution system.
The water is safe to drink and over time this will diminish as the source water becomes solely from the Prairie North Potable Water Supply System.
If you have any further questions or concerns please visit or call the Town of Marshall office at 306-387-6340.
