Public Notices/Announcements - Chatham - Baby wipes are not Flushable

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on

The Municipality of Chatham-Kent would like to remind everyone that baby wipes and disposable wipes are not flushable even if the package states they are. All wipes must be disposed in the garbage. Flushing wipes can clog and damage home plumbing as well as municipal pipes. This can lead to backups in the home.
