City Water Projects

As White Rock water crews and contractors work on projects throughout the City, we hope to minimize any disruption to the water services. Please continue checking this page to see any current and upcoming water related projects.

Aquifer Protection Plan

The Total Water Quality Management Project (TWQMP) is necessary to treat the water supply and upgrade critical infrastructure in the White Rock water system so that customers consistently and reliably receive high quality drinking water that meets both the Fraser Health's water quality requirements and Health Canada's guidelines for Canadian Drinking Water Quality.

Water Main Flushing Program

The City of White Rock’s Water Main Flushing Program aims at maintaining the City's water system. Flushing operations will be carried out between 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, although this is subject to change.

All residences in the flushing area will receive a hand-delivered Notice to Residents prior to the work. If you do not receive a notice we will not be flushing in your area at this time.

Oxford Water Treatment Plant

In March 2017, the Mayor of White Rock joined the Minister of Infrastructure and Communities, the Minister of Community, Sport, and Cultural Development, several MP's and MLA's, and several City Councilors to announce that the City of White Rock would receive a historic first - nearly $12 million in grant funding from the Government of Canada and Government of British Columbia. The money would go towards the City's $14.2 million arsenic and manganese treatment process to address the City's water quality and ensure a healthier community.
