Blood Tribe Public Works would like to inform on-reserve residents, they will be back in full operation with garbage removal, starting on Monday, February 1, 2021.
This past week, the department experienced a staff shortage. Some workers had to self-isolate until their COVID-19 test results came back due to a co-worker coming in close contact with an individual who tested positive for the virus.
Because of the shortage of workers, this caused a minor interruption with garbage pick-up. Public Works apologizes for any inconvenience this caused, and want to thank everyone affected for their time, patience and understanding regarding this matter.
At the time of this posting, Public Works has also stated that everyone’s test has come back negative so far and will return to work on Monday.
