UPDATE PUBLIC NOTICE – Gwaing River and River Mouth Open

George Municipality is pleased to confirm that the Gwaing River and River Mouth is OPEN for swimming and water activities after water quality tests indicate that the river’s water quality meets requirements. This follows a sewer spill caused by damage to a sewer pipeline by a service provider on 12 March. The damaged pipeline was repaired on the same day and the river was closed as a precautionary measure.
