Water Tower Maintenance – Notice to Residents

The Town of Smooth Rock Falls and the Ontario Clean Water Agency (OCWA) wishes to advise users of the municipal drinking water system that major maintenance is being performed on Smooth Rock Falls Water Tower beginning March 13^th, 2023 and is expected to be completed in approximately 10 weeks.

In order for the work to be carried out, the water tower will be slowly drained during the week of March 6^th, 2023. For the duration of the project, the Town’s water distribution system will be fed directly by high lift pumps at the Water Treatment Plant (WTP). While every attempt will be made to stabilize system pressures, there may be occurrences of both high and low system pressure throughout the Town. Should you experience significantly low (or high) water pressure, please contact the Town at 705-338-2717.

Note that in order to allow for continuous work until completion, construction may occur Monday-Sunday from 7:00am to 5:30pm. Nearby residents may experience some noise disturbances during this time.
