Glenfarg
The 2008 construction work at Glenfarg Water Treatment Works won the accolade of "Most Considerate Site" at the 2009 Considerate Contractors Awards. The award was presented to the Black & Veatch Site Manager George Smart and the Scottish Water Solutions Project manager Steve Mason. This project also won two awards at the Scottish Water Awards 2009 "Delivering through Partnership" and "Outperforming the Capital Programme"
It is the source of the River Farg which on one occasion was badly polluted in May 2014, when an employee at the Glenfarg Water Treatment Works at East Blair Farm left a valve open, allowing water to flow into the aluminium sulphate tank. That tank then overflowed, flooding a corridor and draining into the River Farg over a period of several hours.
The village and its surrounding hamlets—including Duncrievie—is governed by Glenfarg Community Council. It lies in the Civil parish of Arngask and the church parish of Abernethy and Dron and Arngask.
