First Nations and Remote Potable Water Treatment Systems

First Nations and Remote Potable Water Treatment Systems

SUMMARY.

Small, remote water treatment systems present unique challenges due to their distance from major population areas and the lack of trained service personnel.  To maintain operations through freezing weather, the treatment process and systems must be ultra-reliable and housed in a well insulated building.

  • Through the “Community Circle” alliance with RESEAU and other groups, First Nations are invited to be a member of the design team and provide input throughout the project.
  • The water treatment plants are custom engineered to the specific needs, of the community, the water quality parameters and available budget.
  • Effective training of the operators and remote monitoring by BIPW staff greatly assists the operator to maintain the plant in normal operation.
  • With many of the BIPW treatment plants located north of 55 degrees N latitude, BIPW is known as a genuine cold weather specialist.
