À propos de ce contenu audio
What does it take to keep clean water flowing across a rural County—and manage solid waste for County residents?
Utilities Manager John McKiernan joins us for a clear, behind-the-scenes look at Kneehill County’s 13 water systems, how Red Deer River water is treated, and why our rural network operates more like a city grid than a trickle line.
John walks us through source-to-tap treatment, reservoir cleanings that require certified divers, year-round maintenance, and simple fixes for common issues like frozen meters. We also dig into drought pressures, conservation, and how changing water conditions affect treatment.
On the waste side, we cover how transfer sites and the Class III landfill operate, why accepted items vary, and why proper sorting matters for safe, efficient handling of household materials—plus what Extended Producer Responsibility means for future recycling options.
We finish with tools to stay informed, holiday hours, water emergency contacts, and Hamlet garbage pickup updates.
Thank you for listening!
