Training
PDWAs & Emergency Response Planning
Service Description
ABOUT THE WORKSHOP: Protecting the water supply is of utmost importance for municipalities, First Nations, and both private and public water utilities. Inevitable events such as water main breaks, depressurization, maintenance work, power failures, and reduced reservoir storage can pose risks to community water supplies, leading to the issuance of Precautionary Drinking Water Advisories (PDWAs), particularly in older systems. This workshop aims to educate operators on how to effectively prepare for PDWAs and develop customized Emergency Response Plans. This workshop will cover key topics and strategies essential for mitigating risks associated with PDWAs. Participants will gain an understanding of the Saskatchewan provincial legislation, and the guidelines pertaining to bacteriological follow-up. Municipal administrative staff and councilors are also encouraged to join this workshop to broaden their knowledge and contribute to the overall preparedness efforts. This workshop includes one day of instruction, classroom material, and Record of Completion.
