Voluntary Water Conservation Advisory

Voluntary Water Conservation Advisory

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. Effective August 14, water conservation is no longer required by mandate, however it remains strongly encouraged to help ensure the long-term sustainability of our water supply.

In addition, residents are asked to keep an eye out for water main leaks and report immediately if a leak is suspected. To report a leak, call 902-258-5048.
