The province has announced the largest water sharing agreement in Alberta’s history, which will see Lethbridge and Medicine Hat, among other municipalities, cut water use.
The City of Lethbridge is cutting back water usage as part of the largest water sharing agreement in Alberta's history. More than three dozen stakeholders are promising to cut back on water usage so there's enough water to go around in case of drought.
“Irrigation districts are going to make sure that there's enough for human health as a top priority and livestock. Crops are going to have to be last,” said Shannon Frank, executive director of the Oldman Watershed Council. The environment minister says a decision will be made on whether to act upon the agreement when snowpack data comes in later this month.Voluntary water limits put in place in face of possible Alberta droughtWinning culture, new arena keys to player retention in Calgary, say FlamesMan sets self on fire outside New York court where Trump trial underway
