upcoming construction of a new drilled well to replace the existing Municipal Well 3.
When: Tuesday, July 2nd until Friday, September 27th.
Where: 32 Jane Street, Sunderland in the Township of Brock
Why: Residents and businesses in the vicinity of the well drilling site may experience increased noise
levels due to the construction. Drinking water quality and supply is not anticipated to be impacted
during this time. Residents are reminded to follow the mandatory odd-even day lawn watering in
effect from May through September under the Regional Water Supply By-law #89-2003. If you wish to
water your lawn, you may do so only on odd calendar days if your house number is an odd number,
or even calendar days if you house is an even number. Water restrictions are important to maintain
adequate water supply for emergencies, including fire protection.
Initial drilling activities will be carried out the week of July 2 and expected to be completed by July 5.
Additional drilling and connection works will resume in mid August and are expected to be completed
by the end of September 2024.
