A 'Localized Emergency' Still In Effect At Indian Hills

A "localized emergency" remains in effect in Lambton Shores for Indian Hills Golf Course and the surrounding subdivision.

Geyser-like eruptions were discovered in a pond on the golf course Wednesday morning, the result of naturally occurring gases being released from the ground.

Deputy Mayor Doug Cook says the declaration, made late yesterday afternoon, allows the municipality to engage provincial resources to help determine the extent of the emergency.
