County of Annapolis supplies water to, and operates four water treatment plants, in Margaretsville, Bridgetown, Granville Ferry, and Cornwallis Park.

Our staff continuously monitor water treatment protocols as set out  by Nova Scotia Environment. Municipal Staff collect test samples on a weekly basis for bacterial analysis at an independent lab and report all results to Nova Scotia Environment. Inspections and repairs are carried out to all plants and systems as needed, and a computerized monitoring system scans each system 24 hours a day and immediately alerts our staff to any issues that may arise. In addition, Operations staff are available by phone 24 hours a day to respond to service interruptions.
