Seasonal Dust Control Applications
The Rural Municipality of Springfield wishes to inform residents that applications for the 2025 Seasonal Dust Control Program are now being accepted.
Residents interested in applying must submit their applications to the Public Works building located at 27055 Oakwood Road Unit 2, Oakbank, no later than April 30th of each year. If April 30th falls on a weekend, the deadline will be extended to the next business day.
The rate will be 50% of the actual rate of the current application cost. The annual cost shall be determined, and advertised, in the month of March and April of each year and advertised on this website.
The cost for the 2025 season for residents is $0.55 cents per linear foot (reflecting a 50% cost share), including all applicable taxes. Applications submitted after April 30th will be subject to the full rate of $1.10 per linear foot. Payment methods accepted include cash, cheque, and Interac.
A minimum of 45 meters (150 feet) of dust suppressant is required, with a maximum width of 4.8-meter (16 feet) unless otherwise deemed necessary by the Public Works Department.
Please note that the Municipality cannot guarantee the effectiveness of the dust control suppressant. Once applied, no refunds will be issued. The dust suppressant is intended to reduce, but not eliminate, dust on roadways. Additionally, the Municipality is not responsible for any privately applied dust control products and will maintain roadways as deemed appropriate by the Public Works Department.
