The Municipality of the District of St. Mary’s would like to inform residents that our supply of potable water for distribution is currently running low. We are expecting a new shipment to arrive by tomorrow, Friday, August 22, 2025. This service is for residents within the Municipality that are on a well. To avoid unnecessary travel or disappointment, please call the Municipal Office at 902-522-2049 before coming to pick up water, to ensure availability.
We appreciate the community’s cooperation and understanding as we work to maintain access to safe drinking water.
