The Municipality provides water services to our citizens through a variety of facilities. Water is produced from nine high quality ground wells that is treated at four treatment plants located in Coleman, Blairmore, Bellevue and Hillcrest. It is then stored in one of four concrete reservoirs and distributed by a complex piping system consisting of pressure boosting stations and pressure reducing stations that are required because of the varying elevations throughout the community. Water is also produced and stored in the Sentinel area west of Coleman for fire protection purposes.
All systems are monitored 24/7 hours a day by either an alarm system or through a satellite monitoring system called SCADA. Qualified municipal employees also check and take samples from each facility for testing on a daily basis to ensure we are providing a safe quality service. The Chinook Health Region also tests our water weekly as well as an independent laboratory at regular intervals.
The following are the rates schedule for municipal water services:

Wastewater (Sewage)
Wastewater is fed to two treatment facilities through a gravity fed collection system. there as an Extended Aeration Treatment Plant located in the Frank Industrial Park. This plant is a mechanical plant that will treat wastewater from Coleman, Blairmore and Frank. Wastewater from Bellevue and Hillcrest is fed to a series of Extended Aeration Lagoons that are located between these communities.
All systems are monitored 24/7 hours a day by an alarm system. Qualified municipal employees which visit each site daily, take samples for testing to ensure we are providing safe quality service.
Samples are also tested by an independent laboratory on a regular basis. The results of all testing is reported to Alberta Environment daily.
