Everyone in Fort McMurray Wood Buffalo has a role in keeping their community safe, clean and welcoming for all. This summer, the Municipality is increasing education and enforcement on the Community Standards Bylaw across the region and residents and businesses are responding.

Once finished, the infrastructure will work together with the other completed flood mitigation reaches to help reduce flood risk and better protect residents, businesses and the community.

Indigenous Services Canada (ISC) has lifted the Do Not Consume Water Advisory for infants, children up to 13 years of age and pregnant women in Fort McKay, confirming that tap water is safe for everyone. Comprehensive water testing confirms manganese levels are below the Health Canada limits.

Members of the Fort McKay First Nation, Fort McKay Métis Nation and all residents in Fort McKay using the municipal water system should run their taps for 10-15 minutes to clear the water lines in their home.
