Case Study: Halifax Water achieves faster water quality reporting and easier compliance with WaterTrax from Aquatic Informatics

Halifax Deploys WaterTrax Quickly and Easily to Comply with New Government Regulations for Drinking Water Quality

Halifax Water, the municipal utility serving the Halifax region, was faced with the challenge of complying with new, stringent government drinking water regulations. The recent amalgamation of municipalities had also doubled the number of water systems they managed, causing their required monthly, quarterly, and annual reports to explode from just two to 142. To manage this overwhelming new burden, they turned to Aquatic Informatics and its WaterTrax solution.

Aquatic Informatics implemented its web-based WaterTrax service, which was quick to deploy and required no internal maintenance from the utility. The solution consolidated all water quality data, making it immediately accessible and eliminating the previous reliance on cumbersome paper records and binders. The results included enhanced data security, vastly improved reporting capabilities, and stronger stakeholder relations, as staff could now provide customers with instant answers and reports.
