BREAKING NEWS CVC ISSUES HIGH WATER SAFETY BULLETIN

Posted: Apr. 17, 2009 Under: Halton Hills - Georgetown Permanent Link to this Article


The Credit Valley Conservation Authority has issued a high water safety bulletin today in effect until Monday April 20, 2009. They are advising that they have been made aware over some recent deterioration found on the Norval Dam in the vicinity of Winston Churchill Boulevard and Highway 7.

Water levels behind the dam have been reduced to minimize the potential outflow should any further deterioration of the structure occur. The Ministry of Natural Resources is aware of the situation and considers the dam a low hazard dam with no risk to life or property.

Weather forecasts show isolated showers are expected for our area on Saturday that may increase the risk of further deterioration with increased flows. Residents downstream of the dam as well as other citizens are urged to stay away from the banks of the Credit River during this warning period
