Timmins South:
• Moneta Ave. between Spruce St S to Railway St.
Date and Time of Disruption:

Homeowners and businesses within the notification area may experience short-term loss in water & pressure or experience brown or rust-coloured water during the disruption. It is recommended not to drink or wash laundry with the discoloured water. While it is not harmful to your health, it can stain laundry. Should this occur, it is advised to turn off your tap for 10-20 minutes in order to allow the crew to finish. Once the work is completed, 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.
Environmental Service Department would like to thank residents for their patience and cooperation during this emergency work.
