Delay anticipated in repair of Fort-Coulonge water treatment plant

Residents of Fort-Coulonge will have to wait a few more days for the missing piece at the filtration plant which is the cause of the current boil-water advisory, as delivery is expected no later than Thursday (September 1). The Municipality of Fort-Coulonge said that the missing part had to be ordered from Germany after American suppliers indicated that they would not be able to supply this part for another few months.

Residents of the St-Camille sector and chemin Gand-Marais in Mansfield as well as residents of Fort-Coulonge have had to boil their water for at least a minute before consumption since the start of the month. Mayor Christine Francœur told CHIP 101.9 that everything should be installed in the next few days.
