Latest On Thunder Bay Flood

The city is slowly returning to normal after the May 28th flood. Garbage pick-up is back on schedule and now spokesperson Darrell Matson says the dump is returning to schedule but they will still honour flood vouchers that were given out, voiding scale fees during regular business hours. Meanwhile, the city survived the rain scare this week. General Manager of Infrastructure and Operations, Darrrell Matson says everything is okay following the 40-to-50 millimetres of precipitation that fell since Tuesday. Matson says they did not have to use any of the strategic pumps that were in place at various locations throughout the city.
