Turn clocks ahead one hour on Sunday, March 9 Nearly seven years after well prob- lems started arising in Hornby when the water table was impacted while Halton Region was building a pumping station, four wells are still having issues. Halton Regional Council recently ap- proved spending an additional $250,000 to fi x the wells bringing the total cost to resolve all 68 private well problems in that area, to about $3.2 million.
