After almost six years of a drinking water advisory due to the elevated trihalomethane levels (THMs), the municipality has announced the advisory was lifted. Algoma Public Health (APH) issued the advisory in November 2014 after THMs in the Wawa drinking water supply were found to be 112.9 micrograms per litre whereas the Ontario Drinking Water Quality Standards allowable level is 100 micrograms per litre.
