These repairs will begin on Aug. 26 and are expected to continue until the end of September. These repairs will  to ensure sufficient supplies for urgent needs, including a return to Stage 4 Outdoor Water Restrictions, meaning no outdoor use of potable water and asking the community to take actions to reduce water usage including:  

• Limit showers to three minutes 
• Skip flushes when you can 
• Only wash full loads of dishes and laundry 
• Turning off water while brushing your teeth
• Heating water in a kettle vs running water via a tap where possible

UCalgary is doing its part by actively taking steps to reduce our daily water usage by 25%. We encourage all members of the campus community to reduce their daily water usage to help us achieve this conservation goal and to support the broader community. Together, we can make a difference.
