Water Quality

• The City of Martensville purchases treated water from Saskatchewan Water Corporation, which is supplied to them by the City of Saskatoon.
• The Water Security Agency  is responsbile for managing the province's water supply, protecting water quality, and ensuring the safe treatment of drinking water and wastewater.
• Municipalities own, and are responsible, for municipal drinking water facilities and their operation. View water sampling for Martensville.

Our Wastewater System 

Residential wastewater is conveyed via multiple lift stations within the City to a system of lagoon cells. Wastewater is treated as it moves through the cells by a combination of microbes, natural chemical processes, and enzymes, which are supported by an aeration system.

Once treated, the water is ready to be discharged from the lagoon via underground piping to the South Saskatchewan River.   

The treated water, or 'effluent' is typically discharged between May until October but is held in the lagoon cells through the months where we experience freezing temperatures. 

Sewer Flushing and Maintenance

Sewer flushing is a regular preventative maintenance activity that must be conducted to ensure the sewer system is operating efficiently. Every effort will be made to minimize the disruption and inconvenience to the residents of Martensville.  Learn more about this program and what to expect.  

Infrastructure Upgrades

Due to ongoing growth, the City’s current lagoon system and water and wastewater infrastructure can no longer meet increasing demand, and upgrades are now underway.

In 2014 the City of Martensville signed an MOU with the City of Saskatoon that would see Saskatoon provide water and wastewater services to Martensville so that demand for service could be met while the upgrades are being made.

These upgrades include:

• Upgrades to existing lagoons
• New gravity conveyance system to connect to the City of Saskatoon’s sanitary sewer system
• Upgrades to existing sewage lift station
• Upgrades to the water supply reservoir and pumping stations
• New water main that will connect to Saskatoon’s drinking water supply system

Once the upgrades are made, the City will purchase its drinking water directly from the City of Saskatoon.

Funding to substantially complete these upgrades was obtained through a New Build Canada Fund grant ($20.16 million) the City received in early 2019. The upgrades should be complete by 2027. Read more information about this project.

What's Safe to Flush or Drain?

Flush only toilet paper with waste down the toilet.  Items such as paper towel and disposable wipes cannot be flushed down the toilet, even if the package says it is flushable.  

Food products containing grease, fats and oils, coffee grounds, and materials like flushable wipes, paper towel, personal hygiene items, birth control methods, pharmaceuticals and hair can cause build-ups that clog pipes and create sewer back-ups. This can result in costly damage to both your home’s sewer system and the City’s sanitary sewer system.
