Water and Wastewater Operator Pilot Program
We work with communities in eastern Newfoundland to provide water quality and wastewater services. This service is delivered as part of pilot program under the provincial government’s Community Sustainability Partnership.
Safe Drinking Water
This program helps ensure participating communities have clean and safe drinking water, particularly those experiencing issues such as long-term boil water advisories and operational challenges. As part of the program, we provide communities with training and technical resources to help operate and maintain water and wastewater systems.
The goal of the program is to help remediate water issues and lift boil water advisories. While boil water advisories are necessary to reduce the risk of water contamination and protect residents, many can be eliminated through proper operation and maintenance of existing water disinfection systems.
Participating areas in the Eastern Region:
- Conception Bay Centre: Avondale, Georgetown, and Marysvale
- Isthmus: Garden Cove, Goobies, North Harbour, and Swift Current
- Southern Shore: Aquaforte, Biscay Bay, Brigus South, Fermeuse, Ferryland, Renews-Cappahayden, Portugal Cove South, Trepassey, St. Shott’s, St. Mary’s, and Gaskiers-Point La Haye
