Catholic School Board Fined

The Northwest Catholic District School Board has been fined $18,000 for violations under the provincial Safe Drinking Water Act.
The Ministry of Environment charged the Board with failing to keep flushing records for lead and failing to provide them to the Ministry in a timely manner.
The fine follows an inspection of Our Lady of the Way School in Stratton in February 2010.
A Board official says water quality was not impacted at the school and they’ve since resolved its records keeping.
