As a result of the unprecedented wildfire season this year, a
number of communities in Northern Alberta were evacuated. Emergency
housing was set up to host up to 1,000 evacuees. In support of this
relief effort, H2O Innovation deployed a team to the community of
John D’Or to maximize the production of drinking water from the
existing treatment facility. The team was onsite in early July,
within four weeks of the notice to proceed, and provided a 30%
plant expansion by July 21st. The collaborative effort involving
Little Red River Cree Nation, Indigenous Services Canada, and Tetra
Tech allowed this rapid increase in drinking water supply and
played a vital role in providing housing for the evacuated
communities. The drinking water system at John D’Or employs
ultrafiltration (UF) as pretreatment for nanofiltration (NF) with a
production capacity of 915 cubic meters per day.
“I could not be prouder of our team, who was able to prioritize
this emergency request and complete a 30% plant expansion within
only a few weeks. We appreciate the opportunity to contribute to
the relief efforts in the aftermath of this natural disaster and to
make a difference for these communities. This project perfectly
aligns with our mission to provide solutions to complex water
problems and to positively impact lives in times of need,”
stated Frédéric Dugré, President, Chief Executive Officer and
co-Founder of H2O Innovation.
