Infrastructure

Pemberton Water Services

• The Village water system services the entire municipality (except for the
• Industrial Park, which is serviced by the Mount Currie water system).

• The water service is provided by 3 wells constructed in 1992, 1997, and 2009.

The Village has deferred a full cost recovery methodology rate but will continue to explore it as a methodology to determine a rate structure that will better support a transition to water metering.
