Both water and sewer services are available in the former town of Powassan. This utility is charged to each user based on a flat rate for residential users and a metered rate for larger commercial users. Water and Sewer are self-sufficient ledgers with absolutely no tax dollars being allocated.
The Municipality has installed a new, up-to-date, water tower that was activated on April 27, 2007. There was a 1 million dollar fund from the Northern Ontario Hertitage Fund Coporation that assisted in offsetting the cost to the water and sewer users.
Public information on the Water System is available for review at the Municipal Office during normal business hours.
