IMPORTANT NOTICE TO ALL WINCHESTER INDIVIDUALS CONSUMING WATER FROM THE NORTH DUNDAS DRINKING WATER SYSTEM
Recent routine testing of the drinking water from the North Dundas Drinking Water System revealed that the sodium level was exceeding the upper limits of the recommended levels.
The amount of sodium in water is normally not a significant problem for most people. However, excess sodium can be a health problem for individuals who require a sodium-restricted diet due to a variety of medical reasons. Please be advised that anyone using drinking water from the North Dundas Drinking Water System that requires a reduced sodium diet should consult their family physician regarding any precautions that he or she might suggest.
