Contaminated water samples from a home on Brooks Line, August 2, 2017.

Earlier this week, Water Wells First said a home on Brooks Line suffered serious contamination immediately following pile driving operations at a North Kent Wind 1 site about a kilometre away.

In an emailed statement, Jody Law the Senior Manager of Development with the project says engineers from Aecom visited the home this week and were able to run a tap continuously with no sediment found.

Law says that while there was no visual evidence of contamination, an expedited analysis has been requested from the lab but at this point, there is no empirical evidence of an issue.
