The Town of Wembley has officially joined Aquatera Utilities Inc. as the organization’s fourth shareholder.

Wembley transferred its water infrastructure assets in exchange for shares in Aquatera on January 1.

In mid-June, a 26 km water transmission line will join the town of Wembley to the City of Grande Prairie and provide high quality, reliable drinking water from the Aquatera system.

Aquatera invested over $3 million towards the cost of the $22 million water transmission line.
