Below are some frequently asked questions regarding 2014 Lake George Road with related answers:

“I live fairly close to 2014 Lake George Road and I am concerned about my water. Will the Town test my well water?”

The Town has hired Professional Engineers to advise us on the issues related to 2014 Lake George Road. They have established an ”area of influence” ranging between 1938 and 2122 Lake George Road, beyond which, impacts from 2014 Lake George Road are very unlikely. The Town is testing wells within the area of influence only. Private well owners should maintain their wells, with regular testing, as recommended by Nova Scotia Department of Environment. Information is available on their website - https://www.novascotia.ca/nse/water/privatewells.asp
