An update from the Town of Antigonish regarding the Sewage Treatment Plant:

Two weeks ago, there was a mechanical issue at the Town’s Sewage Treatment Plant at the east end of Main Street. The equipment was replaced mid-last week and the plant has resumed normal operations.  

While the Town does perform regular, scheduled maintenance at the plant, mechanical issues can arise, which may cause a disruption to the process resulting in an odor. This odor is not harmful. It is important to note that due to the nature of the plant, it does take time for the plant to recover and return to its regular processes.  

The Town apologizes for the inconvenience this has caused our community.
