Water and Wastewater Services

SaskWater is the province"s Crown water utility service provider. The company"s core lines of business include potable and non-potable water supply, wastewater treatment and management, and certified operations and maintenance. To deliver these products SaskWater designs, builds, owns and operates transmission, regional and stand-alone water supply and wastewater systems that meet or exceed regulatory requirements. SaskWater also provides certified operation and maintenance services to customer-owned systems.

Wastewater Treatment and Management

An emerging issue in water management is the need for environmentally sustainable wastewater treatment systems. SaskWater currently owns and operates wastewater facilities in Nipawin, Pierceland and the Echo-Regional Wastewater facility in Fort Qu"appelle. Wastewater service delivery models include stand-alone operations and short distance regional systems. The systems required for the collection, treatment and disposal of wastewater do not translate well economically into large regional systems.

Project Management

SaskWater provides project management services, when appropriate, to plan and manage the design and construction of water and wastewater infrastructure projects.

Remote Monitoring

Partnering with TransGas, SaskWater uses a Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system to remotely monitor 37 of the corporation"s owned and contracted systems across the province 24 hours a day 365 days a year. The monitored information is fed into a remote terminal unit, which has pre-set levels to sound an alarm if one or more factors are malfunctioning.
