This past Sunday August 27th a number of property owners at the end of Watson Rd. noticed a black oily like water slick across their bay and
accumulating on their beaches, and watercraft. The Ministry of the Environment were called in and identified the slick as "creosote", a highly
toxic and polluting chemical used to preserve wood etc. from decay. It is highly probable that the source of this pollution was from a property in
the immediate bay area and was carried into the lake by Saturday nights rainfall.
Anyone knowing the source of this pollutant should contact myself , Casey
Cook, Vern Fallows, Gary Chadwick, Marg Fielding, Kim Martin or Helen
Lucas, as soon as possible, so we can try to stop any future
reoccurrences.
Looking forward to finding out the source of this chemical pollutant.
