The Town of Deep River stores treated water in a 1,513 cubic metres (m3) elevated (30.5 metres)water storage tank (water tower) located on the corner of Deep River Road and Highway 17, south of the water treatment plant. Treated water flows by gravity from the tower into the municipal distribution system.
Water level sensors contained within the elevated storage tank activate/deactivate operation of the high lift pumps. The reservoir is contained within a locked security perimeter fence.
A small cinder block structure located near the base of the tower and within the perimeter fencing contains all valves necessary for draining and isolating the tower.
The tower is provided with security fencing and the access hatch is locked.
