The F.E. Holliday Water Treatment Plant is now pumping to full capacity. The electrical problem was repaired early last evening and the plant was able to pump throughout the night. As a result, the Water Use Reduction Advisory, issued on Monday, January 10th, 2011, has now been lifted.
On January 10th, two contractors were injured by electrical shock at the F.E. Holliday Water Treatment Plant. As a result, the main fuses and transformer were damaged and were not operating.
The City of North Battleford appreciates all residents and businesses for restricting their water use over the past few days. The Director of Public Works and Engineering would also like to thank SaskPower, Fedler Electric and City of North Battleford public works staff for working around the clock to repair the problem.
