Residents in the Rural Municipality of Morris may experience changes to their water service from May 5 to May 7, 2026, due to planned maintenance being conducted by the Pembina Valley Water Cooperative. This work, which affects the water lines serving the municipality, is expected to cause fluctuations in water pressure, visible discoloration, or changes in the taste and odor of the water for the area’s 1,054 utility customers.

The Rural Municipality of Morris has confirmed that despite these potential changes, the water remains safe for consumption. If residents notice any discoloration, the municipality advises that the water should clear after running the taps for a short period.

To stay updated throughout the maintenance period, the municipality is encouraging residents to sign up for the Connect emergency notification system, which provides alerts via text, email, and phone. Updates will also be shared on the municipal website and social media during regular business hours.

For any urgent water concerns during this time, residents can contact the municipality’s dedicated emergency line at 204-746-0181.
