After months of waiting, Tiny Township finally has been given the green light to turn on the communal water taps. Township Clerk Guy Maurice' said he received a copy of a letter sent from the acting Medical Officer of Health, for Simcoe County, Dr. J. Key, advising the Ministry of the Environment's District Officer Neil Embree that the water in the two communal wells "is safe for drinking purposes."' Although the findings of laboratory testing on the water in the two wells completed in October fell within the acceptable limits set by the Ministry of the Environment, the wells were not to be turned on until given the go ahead by the Ministry of Health. Maurice said that since he got the letter late Thursday evening, Tiny's Water Works Superintendent Hubbert Charlebois has been working on flushing the pipes of the system, so the residents can get their water from the communal wells as soon as possible. Charlebois said he hoped to have the system ready for full operation in the next few days, so the people in Perkinsfield could start hooking up to the new system, Charlebois added once he had all the work completed, which in- cludes linking' the pumping 'station, Perkinsfield residents shouldn't have any problem connecting to the new water system. When the services were redone in Perkinsfield, the mains were brought directly into each household. After each of the homes have been linked to the system, the superintendent said all the residents have to do is. to contact Tiny Township. He will see that their water supply is turned on.
