PSA: Voluntary Water Conservation Advisory

August 14, 2025

Public Service Announcement: Voluntary Water Conservation Advisory – Municipality of Inverness County

Thanks to the continued efforts of residents, the Municipality of Inverness County is transitioning from a mandatory water conservation advisory to a voluntary advisory for all users of the municipal water system.

While water conservation is no longer required by mandate, it remains strongly encouraged to help ensure the long-term sustainability of our water supply.

Water Conservation Tips:

• Take short showers and avoid baths.
• Turn off taps when brushing teeth or washing dishes.
• Only run dishwashers and washing machines with full loads.
• Keep a bottle of water in the fridge to avoid running the tap for cold water.
• Limit toilet flushing.
• Avoid non-essential outdoor water use like watering lawns or hosing down driveways.
• Promptly repair any leaks in and around taps and plumbing.

Detect and Report Leaks:

Leaks can waste thousands of litres of water and often go unnoticed. Watch for:

• Persistent puddles or soggy ground
• Running water or unexplained streams
• Sudden drops in water pressure

If you suspect a water leak in your community, please report it immediately by calling 902-258-5048.

Should water tower levels drop, a mandatory water conservation advisory will be re-issued. The municipality thanks you for your cooperation and understanding.
