DRWU Pumphouse #5 Traditional Cache

This cache was motivated by the Dundurn Rural Water Utility Phase III Project. It is part of a series of caches near the sites of several Pumphouses delivering potable water to communities south of Saskatoon.

The cache you seek is small with a log only. Please bring your own writing utensil.

The Dundurn Rural Water Utility was formed by the Rural Municipalities of Dundurn, Rosedale, Blucher and the Resort Village of Thode and Resort Village of Shields.

The objective of the Dundurn Rural Water Utility is to provide water from the City of Saskatoon to the rural residents of these municipalities.

Formed in 2005, the Dundurn Rural Water Utility started and completed Phase I & II water projects, providing water from the City of Saskatoon to a small number of residents who live in the R.M. of Blucher and the R.M. of Dundurn. Since that time, the call for better quality water for communities south of Saskatoon has increased. With the highly sought after potable water, a Phase III water project was formed.

It has been interesting watching the trials of the pipeline crews placing the pipes along Highway #11 from Saskatoon down to Hanley.

The project is essentially completed as of now with all users expected to be operational by early Spring 2012.

Congratulations to TheOldNag4 for the FTF!
