🚜 Attention Ag Producers! 🌾

USWA is offering support to help keep our communities clean and environmentally safe.

We now have grain bag rollers available FREE of charge to help you properly manage and dispose of used grain bags.

In addition, you can drop off your used bags at any of our designated sites:
📍 Corning
📍 Halbrite
📍 Alameda

From there, we’ll handle the evacuation and recycling of the material.

This initiative is all about reducing waste, preventing litter, and protecting our environment for everyone. Let’s work together to keep our land clean and sustainable.

If you’re interested or need more information, feel free to reach out!

💧 World Water Day 2026 💧

USWA was pleased to participate in the World Water Day Water Treatment Plant Tour hosted by the City of Weyburn.

Clean, reliable drinking water doesn’t happen by chance; it relies on strong systems, ongoing investment, and the expertise of dedicated professionals.

We are reminded that protecting our water resources is a shared responsibility. Collaboration between communities, municipalities, and watershed associations is key to long-term sustainability.

Thank you to the City of Weyburn for opening its doors and helping raise awareness about the value of water.

At our recent AIS Summit, one message came through loud and clear: it costs far less to prevent the spread of aquatic invasive species than it does to contain them once they’re established.

Prevention isn’t just the easier path; it’s the smarter, more cost-effective one. Every clean, drained, and dried watercraft makes a difference in protecting our lakes and ecosystems.

Let’s work together to stop the spread before it starts. 🌊
