The Town of Saugeen of Shores and Ontario Clean Water Agency (OCWA) are currently repairing a water main in the area of Elgin Street and Eastwood Drive in Port Elgin. Water service to residents in the vicinity of Elgin Street and Eastwood Drive may be affected during repair.

Residents may notice discolouration of water and a drop in pressure while the work is being completed. Upon completion of the water main, service will resume as usual.

In a May 19 release, "Crews are on site right now. We expect to have the repair completed before the end of the day. If residents notice discolouration of their water, they should leave a tap running for 10 minutes. If discolouration persists beyond 10 minutes, continue to run tap and call OCWA on call," said Adam Stanley, Manager of Engineering Services with the Town of Saugeen Shores. The number to call is 519-389-1748.
