2022 Dust Control Pilot Program

The RM of Corman Park is introducing a pilot program for dust control in the 2022 season. The pilot program provides another option for ratepayers to obtain dust control at a discounted rate. Dust control will be applied for 150 meters on either side of the driveway for a total of 300 meters. There will be 2 set application times throughout the summer. A dust control request form will need to be filled out and returned to the RM by the form submission deadline. The RM will then arrange the dust control application for a discounted rate and invoice the ratepayer after the dust control is applied.

 
 

The Dust Control Policy (Section C) and Dust Control 2022 Pilot Program Request Form describe the program in more detail.  For dust control requests outside of the pilot program, ratepayers will need to arrange for dust control through a contractor and contact the RM 72 hours before the application date as per the policy. 

The spring dust control application option will be in May/June and the form submission deadline is April 22, 2022. The summer dust control application option will be in August and the form submission deadline is June 30, 2022. Completed request forms must be received at the office by the form submission deadlines. The forms can be submitted online to rm344@rmcormanpark.ca or in person at the office.

Haul Roads

Upon request by a resident the RM will arrange for dust control application on roads with current Road Maintenance Agreements in place. These costs are reimbursed to the RM by the hauler. Dust control is applied for 150 metres on either side of the resident's approach centreline.

Other Roads

The RM does not cover the cost of dust control applications. Residents interested in covering the cost of dust control must contact the RM prior to the application date (a minimum of  72 hrs notice is required) and a grader will be dispatched to prepare the road surface for the application. Public Works will also refrain from grading that section of road immediately after the application.
