The City of Timmins Environmental Services & Public Utilities department wishes to advise the public of a scheduled water infrastructure maintenance activity that may affect water quality on Suzanne St. from Lamminen Ave. to Randall Dr.
Crews will be replacing a watermain valve with work starting Monday, July 31 from 11:00 a.m. to approximately 4:00 p.m.
Homes and businesses in the affected area could be without water for a few hours, as well experience discolored water and lower than normal water pressure. If discoloured water occurs, it is recommended not to drink or wash laundry. While the water is not harmful to your health, it can stain clothing and linens. It is advised to 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 color has returned to normal.
City staff would like to thank residents for their patience and cooperation during this work.
