Dover Township boil water advisory no longer in effect

A boil water advisory issued for Dover Township has been rescinded.

The advisory issued on Monday for all consumers of the Chatham-Kent Municipal Water Distribution Systems in Mitchell’s Bay, Grande Pointe and Bass Haven including areas below was lifted late Thursday afternoon by Chatham-Kent Public Health.

Mitchell’s Bay

  • Winterline Road

  • Bay Line up to and including the community of Mitchell's Bay

  • Winterline Road - north of Mitchell's Bay up to and including Haven Line and Bassette Line

Grande Pointe

  • 7219 St. Philippes Line and properties to the west up to the intersection of St. Philippes Line and Winterline Road

  • 7142 & 7143 St. Philippes Line and properties to the west up to 25658 Jacob Road

CK Public Health said it has received satisfactory test results from water samples taken on Monday and Tuesday.

"Based on these results, the Acting Medical Officer of Health, Dr. Shanker Nesathurai, has rescinded the boil water advisory," stated CK Public Health in a news release.

A loss in water pressure through the distribution system gets the blame for the boil water advisory.

Health unit officials said the public can call CK Public Health at 519-352-7270 if they have any questions or concerns.
