Environment

We consider ourselves to be an "environmentally aware" community. With over 30 kilometers of paved trails, our residents can enjoy our parks and open spaces at a leisurely pace. Our Wetlands Conservation Area area cleans stormwater run-off naturally and has a variety of flora and fauna for all to enjoy.

The City promotes recycling within our community through the Curbside Recycling Program and the use of Shell Recycling Sacks. In addition, the City is proud to be a part of the Fort Air Partnership, that aims to ensure the maintenance of our air quality.

Our local industry plays a big part in our environment in a variety of ways.

Environmental Awareness Committee
The Environmental Awareness Committee was formed by the City of Fort Saskatchewan Council in the spring of 1990, to advise Council on local environmental issues. The Committee is made up of voluntary representatives of the public, industry, the Elk Island School Board, the Lakeland Regional Health Authority, and Fort Saskatchewan City Council.
