Custom Dust Suppressant – 2026
- The Municipality revised order options and billing calculations to align with our contractor’s processes and measurements.
- Litre-Based Billing: To ensure maximum accuracy and efficiency, the Municipality has transitioned from “per foot” billing to a price-per-litre applied model.
- Metric Ordering: The width and length of the dust suppressant application site will be in metric units.
- Application Rates: Ratepayers can choose between the regular application rate of 1.5 litres/metre or a heavier application rate of 2.0 litres/metre.
- Application Width: The contractor’s recommendation is to choose an application width to match the width of road to assist in the reduction of dust. For example, 3 metres for driveways, 4.5 or 6 metres for most roads, and 9 metres for wider roads (such as Grid Roads 662, 650, 753 and the Dyck Memorial Road).
- Policy: TS300 Dust Suppressant Policy was adopted at the April 15, 2026 Council Meeting.
- Price: Dust suppressant is charged at $0.45 per litre plus PST.
- Deadline: The Dust Control Contract of Understanding must be received in the Municipal Office by 4:00 p.m. on May 11, 2026 – NO EXCEPTIONS and NO REMINDERS. Ordering must be completed through the Municipal Office and cannot be placed through Council, the Contractor or the Maintenance Department.
