Water Issue – 3600 Pod

Posted December 18, 2018

Regular health and safety checks have discovered a drinking water fixture (tap) that contains a level of lead that exceeds the provincial drinking water standards. The tap is in the 3600 pod sink.

The corrective action is to flush drinking water fixtures daily, which custodial staff have started today.  This sink is out of use for staff and students until further notice.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding this issue, please contact the SJAM main office.
