Water Flushing December 16-19, 2024

Posted December 12, 2024 @ 10:45am

With the water testing showing a reduction in manganese these last couple of days, OCWA (our water contractor) intends to conduct flushing throughout the system on Monday-Wednesday next week, in hopes of quickly resolving the discolouration issue. As is normal with flushing, this may cause increased discolouration before it gets better. For the public’s purpose, we have developed a short video, and a page referencing frequently asked questions about manganese in the drinking water. 

More information can be found here and on our YouTube page here

Any further questions or concerns can be brought forward by calling 705-752-1410 or by e-mail at info@callander.ca
