The program to help protect Quinte area municipal drinking water sources has completed its “road sign” project.
About 800 of the new road signs will be installed across the province with 33 of those already installed in the Quinte Region; 24 on municipal roads and nine on provincial highways.
The local Source Water protection program in the Quinte area has located signs in Belleville, Prince Edward County, Marmora and Lake, Centre Hastings, Madoc Township, Tweed, Deseronto and Greater Napanee.
Spokesperson Lucille Fragomeni says the signs identify zones along frequently travelled roads where pollution spills could have a significant impact on our municipal drinking water sources.
