City commits to water quality protection charter
Red Deer city council has decided to continue to work with the Red Deer River Municipal Users Group, (RDRMUG) to ensure the protection of the Red Deer River.
The City of Red Deer has been a member of group since 2005.
Last September the group distributed a charter for all of its members to sign, and Monday night city council voted to adopt it.
Council also agreed to endorse and support the main goals of the Government of Alberta’s renewed Water for Life Strategy, which include: safe, secure, drinking water, healthy aquatic eco-systems, reliable quality water supplies for a sustainable economy, and continuing to implement initiatives that protect source quality water in the Red Deer Watershed.
