The City of Timmins, Environmental Services Department wishes to advise the public of a Whitney-Tisdale Pump Station #2 Raw Overflow Report.

Address: 57 Evans Street
Start date: April 16, 2026
Start time: 4:11 PM

Volume by-passed: 1393.99 m3

Municipal wastewater consists of 99% water from stormwater and homes/businesses from washing, flushing etc. When a treatment plant or treatment process is overwhelmed, a bypass or overflow can occur. These events are often caused by heavy rainfall and/or snowmelt. During a by-pass or overflow, partially treated wastewater is diverted away from a treatment process to prevent backups, overflows or damage to the system.

Residents can help by conserving water by delaying or limiting unnecessary usage such as laundry, taking long showers or running the dishwasher during rain storms. You can also help by keeping our pipes clear - no wipes in the pipes!

To learn more about how the system works and what actions you can take please visit: https://www.timmins.ca/cms/one.aspx?portalId=11976429&pageId=20229538

City staff would like to thank residents for their assistance in reducing water usage during this time.

The City of Timmins, Environmental Services Department wishes to advise the public of Watermain Break Repair within the following area:

Timmins South:
Moneta Ave. between Spruce St S to Railway St.

Date and Time of Disruption:
April 8, 2026, from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM

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.
