Effective Tuesday, Oct. 31, The City of Calgary is lifting city-wide outdoor water use restrictions and returning the drought monitoring dial to dry conditions.
Due to decreasing temperatures and seasonal shifts in water use, demand has stabilized and is not forecasted to increase.
Even though there are no outdoor water restrictions in place, Calgarians are encouraged to be thoughtful about their daily water use this winter and into next spring.
While this is the first time that The City of Calgary has required residents to reduce their outdoor water use due to drought, the Calgary region is prone to hot, dry summers.
Moving forward, The City will continue to monitor drought conditions (watershed, operational and regional conditions) and to reduce its operational water use to further manage our available water supply.
