Water

Brandon has an excellent supply of potable water. Access to an independent water supply is available in select locations. The City of Brandon's Water Treatment Plant provides a water supply capacity of 54 million litres per day and operates between 45% and 75% capacity, depending on demand. The Assiniboine River, which runs through the city, is the sole source of water during normal operation. There is a limited 90 day supply of water provided by wells. The river flows are augmented during low flow periods by the release of water from the Shellmouth Reservoir.

The City operates a state-of-the-art secondary wastewater treatment facility for all wastewater generated within the City. The City of Brandon’s Water Treatment Facility uses a lime/soda ash water softening process as well as use of a coagulant for enhancement of sedimentation.

Additional information on Brandon water can be found in the Brandon Water Supply Annual Report (http://brandon.ca/main.nsf/pages+by+id/887) or by contacting the Brandon Water Treatment Plant at 204-729-2190.
