City officials in Calgary will update the public at 1 p.m. on repairs to the Bearspaw south feeder main, which burst on December 30. Mayor Jeromy Farkas reported progress with a new section of pipe installed but urged residents to reduce water usage, as consumption reached 507 million litres—above the sustainable target of 485 million litres. The city issued a water supply alert urging conservation through shorter showers and full loads for dishwashers and washing machines. Critical alerts are only sent for immediate threats to life, according to Alberta Emergency Alert.
