Water Conservation Advisory Effective June 9, 2025

Active Water bans

- ONGOING

The Capital Region Southwest Water Services Commission (CRSWSC), which supplies water to the City of Beaumont and surrounding municipalities, has advised member communities to implement a Water Conservation Advisory.

This recommendation is a precautionary measure in response to hot and dry weather conditions that are placing increased demand on the regional water system. While there is no immediate risk to the water supply, the advisory supports regional conservation efforts as these conditions continue.

What the City is doing

Beaumont has already taken action to limit non-essential water use across its operations. These changes include suspending:

  • Flushing of water and sewer mains
  • Firefighting training that requires water
  • Street cleaning and vehicle washing
  • Irrigation of parks (except essential areas and flowerbeds)
  • Use of hydrant meters
  • Commissioning activities for private development and infrastructure

Additionally, Four Seasons Spray Park hours will be adjusted to 1 to 6 pm (from the usual 10 am to 7:30 pm). This change allows the park to stay open during peak heat and after work hours while supporting water conservation.

How residents can help

While this is not a mandatory water restriction, residents are strongly encouraged to reduce their water use during this time. Small changes can make a big difference:

  • Take shorter showers
  • Turn off taps while brushing teeth or shaving
  • Delay laundry and dishwashing where possible
  • Avoid watering lawns or washing vehicles
  • Refrain from filling pools, hot tubs or sprinklers

This advisory will remain in place until further notice. The City will provide updates as more information becomes available from the CRSWSC.

Thanks for doing your part to keep things flowing!
