Taber prepares for drought as outdoor water rules loom
Taber reports dry drought risk with low river flows and a strong El Nino signaling a drier, warmer winter. The town, working with St Mary River Irrigation District and Alberta government, monitors conditions and may impose outdoor water restrictions earlier, longer, and stricter if shortages worsen. The town will reduce use voluntarily at onset and, if needed, implement stages of its Water Conservation Bylaw to curb demand.
