Nice water saving, Fernie!

To the lady from the gas station on the highway using the watering hose instead of a broom to clean the asphalt… To the man on 8th st washing the whole street in front of his house…. To this other man in the annex watering his grass(!) in april… What’s wrong with you??? And the season has just begun!!!!!!! Please do your part and help save the water! I can’t wait for the time we will receive water bills, maybe if it’s not free anymore people will be more conscious of how much water they are wasting…

Have a great summer!

At this time Fernie’s water issue is not supply but rather the content.

Organizations such as Teck, Fernie Alpine Resort, Fernie Golf Club, City Of Fernie, and development as a whole are polluting the Elk River.

This is why the Elk River is on the BC Rivers Endangered list.

The issue is not how much water is used or if it goes back to the Elk River, its to get people aware that there is a global issue about the drinking water that we cannot ignore anymore. If people carry on that magic thought that water is endless (and that it doesn’t really matters, it goes back to the Elk River), we are in trouble here.

unfortunately it is very expensive to put in h2o meters…..but paying for what was coNsumed would be the only way to get SOme ppl to cut back a bit on their driveway/street washing and over watering their lawns.
i guess we’ll all have to flush our toilets 1 less time/ day to help conserve the water these wasters are wasting. dble wipe, skip every 2nd flush….
