The boil water advisory to consumers of the Wheatley and Tilbury Water Distribution Systems is no longer in effect.
The advisory, which was issued on September 13, has been rescinded by the Municipality of Chatham-Kent.
That includes all consumers of the following:
CK Public Health has received satisfactory test results from the water samples taken on October 1 and October 2.
Based on sufficient water pressures, adequate chlorine levels, and water free of bacterial contamination, the acting Medical Officer of Health, Dr. Shanker Nesathurai, has lifted the boil water advisory.
The Chatham-Kent Public Utilities Commission continues to work to ensure that water is available for everyone and ask that water conservation efforts continue.
As repairs continue at the Wheatley Water Treatment Plant, the Municipality of Chatham-Kent and Chatham-Kent PUC will continue to provides updates.
