City of Timmins, Environmental Services Department, wishes to advise the public of an emergency watermain repair in the following area:

Area

Gold Centre - Schumacher 

Time of Disruption

Effective immediately. Estimated time of completion is late evening on December 19, 2024. 

Homeowners from Ponderosa St. through Gold Centre will experience short-term loss of water, water pressure or experience brown or rust-coloured water during the repair this evening. Approximate length of repair time is 3-4 hours.

It is recommended not to drink or wash laundry with discoloured water. While it is not harmful to your health, it can stain laundry. Once repairs are complete, turn on the COLD water tap closest to the source (usually your laundry tub tap) and let it run for approximately 15-20 minutes or until the water colour has returned to normal.

City staff would like to thank residents for their patience and cooperation during this necessary work.
