Uranium in the Well Water #2

The Northwestern Health Unit continues to collect water samples from
wells located in the area.
Officials issued a boil water advisory last month after 2-positive
cases of uranium were discovered.
Spokesperson Bill Limerick warns several wells could still be
contaminated.

n070 runs: 15 sec. out…per litre.

Limerick says higher levels can lead to kidney damage and rural
residents who exceed the acceptable standard should install a treatment
device to remove the uranium.
