The Town of Shaunavon has been receiving numerous calls recently about the chlorine odor in the tap water.

In a press release issued on Tuesday, the Town says Shaunavon's tap water is safe to drink.

In the release, the Town says they are constantly testing the water supply before it enters the distribution system, as per Water Security Agency requirements.

The Town of Shaunavon is currently doing a pilot project on Well Number 5 to add the process of ultraviolet disinfection to the water, which would kill or inactivate micro-organisms and viruses.

Any questions should be forward to the Shaunavon Town Office.
