Dam Footings
A lot of rock breaking and earth excavating has been happening at the site of the new dam on Williams Lake through July
Swimming Advisory
Our routine lake water testing on 5 August, 2026, at the East end of the lake indicates high E-coli count in the test area. The count is above the acceptable healthy and safe swimming limit and therefore the Eastern end of the lake is not considered healthy for swimming.
New dam new design
BuildNS has released an engineering schematic of the new dam at Williams Lake, Halifax.
