Temporary taste and odour in drinking water

Lloydminster, AB/SK — Due to recent changes in the water quality of the North Saskatchewan River, residents may notice an earthy taste or odour in their tap water; however, the water remains safe to drink. 

The Water Treatment Plant has adjusted the treatment process to reduce these issues, and regular testing is ongoing. While these adjustments have been made, it may take time for the treated water to fully circulate through the distribution system.

Residents can use the online Report a Concern tool at Lloydminster.ca/ReportaConcern for further inquiries or concerns.
