Lift Station no. 1, of seven water stations, has been restored and is functioning, the town of Hay River confirmed.

Residents were asked to use the water sparingly as the service was stored over an hour between 6:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. on Sunday, May 22.

Property owners were told monitor their pump closely for wastewater backups and a slight discolouration of water was to be expected.

Contractors and workers at the Public Works have been labouring around the clock to restore this service, at one point using 17 pumps simultaneously to de-water the sewage station.
