People living in the Dominion Park Area can safely drink their water again without boiling it first.
Saint John Water issued the boil water order last month for 25 homes on Tippett Drive including Mary's Place, Mackie Lane and Cove Roadway.
Then on August 3rd it was expanded to include 75 residents of the Greenhead road after the bridge.
Saint John Water says if you've been away, or if you haven't used your water at all, you should let your taps run for a few minutes to get rid of any contaminated water that might be sitting in your pipes.
If you purchase gasoline from Irving Oil, you will want to take a look at this.
The company discovered last week a portion of it's supreme product was not meeting octane specifications at some stations around the Province.
Refinery General Manager Mark Sherman tells CHSJ News, the problem is one of the truck loading bays had an automated valve malfunction which caused the supreme to be mixed with regular gasoline.
Sherman adds the equipment has been fixed and the company is now going through the process to figure out which gas stations received the affected supreme gasoline.
If you have any questions about what happened, you can go to the company's web site or call 1-877-686-0792 starting tomorrow morning (Tuesday, August.17th/2010) at nine o'clock.

With the tab growing at one million dollars a day for replacement power at Point Lepreau, the Energy Minister says negotiations with Ottawa continue to pick up the tab for replacement power.
Jack Keir tells CHSJ News, he met with MP Keith Ashfield late Friday night and Ottawa is still reviewing the file.
Our news-room asked Minister Keir if this issue could cost the Liberal Party re-election in the Provincial vote next month and he says he doesn't see how the Graham Government can be pinned down when it was the Conservative Party that signed the contract which put all cost responsibilities on the Provincial Government.

With the Province and Ottawa both investing over $800,000 dollars, the Highland Road in Grand Bay Westfield and Route 127 in St. Andrews are getting some upgrade work.
Grand Bay Westfield Mayor Grace Losier tells CHSJ News, this project has been in the works for over twenty years and couldn't have happened with Energy Minister Jack Keir and SouthWest MP Greg Thompson.
Losier adds this project is going to open strategic new commercial space and over 400 acres of residential area.
Total cost of the both projects totals $1.7 million but no word on when the work will be finished.
Common Councillor Patty Higgins argues there is no need for any residential and commercial development that might encroach on Rockwood Park.
She claims there's 90 nearby acres the owner would love to see development on.
She also says her contention that a huge chunk of the park could be developed commercially and residentially is contained in the consultant's report.
The Friends of Rockwood Park, who also oppose development within the park's boundaries, will be holding a public information meeting this Thursday night at the Fort Howe hotel.

He expects when someone gets sick, real action will be taken.
Bishop says the Department is willing to visit the Valley and says he thinks that meeting will happen in the fall.

A new poll shows that 77 per cent of business owners in Atlantic Canada feel there is an economic recovery underway. Christine Cooper is the vice-president of BMO, Bank of Montreal, for New Brunswick and PEI and tells CHSJ News business owners are showing a general feeling of confidence that is leading them to make additional investments.
Cooper says more business owners are investing here than they are in the rest of Canada, and say that's likely because Atlantic Canada didn't have the same sharp economic drop Ontario and Quebec did when the recession hit.
