Tilbury water supply secure as Wheatley plant rebuild continues
The Municipality of Chatham-Kent says it remains confident in its ability to continue supplying safe drinking water to Tilbury residents, despite ongoing reliance on a temporary water system in Wheatley following a fire at the Wheatley Water Treatment Plant. Since the September 2023 blaze forced the shutdown of the facility, the Chatham-Kent Public Utilities Commission has been operating a temporary water treatment system in Wheatley and implemented outdoor water restrictions to manage supply. 'With the current extra demand on the Wheatley water system, we are experiencing a critically low amount of water in our reservoirs and water towers and are asking all customers to eliminate all outdoor water usage,' Karen Burgess, director of operations for water and wastewater, said in an April 25 statement. The restrictions — which included a ban on lawn watering, washing vehicles, filling pools and outdoor construction — were lifted on May 13 for customers in both Wheatley and Tilbury. However, a lawn watering restriction remains in place and officials are asking residents to continue complying voluntarily. Burgess told the Tilbury Times Reporter the quality of drinking water has not been affected, and that the PUC continues to meet all provincial guidelines for treatment, disinfection and monitoring while the temporary system is in operation. If the rebuild of the Wheatley plant — targeted for completion by August — is delayed, the municipality says contingency plans are in place to ensure a continued water supply for Tilbury. 'We will continue to utilize the temporary water treatment system that has been set up in Wheatley,' Burgess said. 'As a contingency, we can acquire water from the South Chatham-Kent Water Treatment Plant in Blenheim, along with water from the Leamington distribution system. Hauling water from the Chatham Drinking Water System to Tilbury has also been used in the past.' She said the municipality is confident its current infrastructure and emergency supply plans will maintain safe and stable water service for the community.

Sicko, 40, allegedly sported ski mask during twisted encounters with teen he raped, blackmailed for years
A depraved Oregon man allegedly raped a teenage girl he met online — after coercing the youngster into sending explicit photos he used to blackmail her into a four-year string of disturbing trysts, cops said. Seth Michael Winkelhake, 40, was busted Tuesday, months after a tip exposed years of sexual abuse he inflicted on a 13-year-old girl, according to the Clackamas County Sheriff's Office. The young girl allegedly told police she met the sicko — who called himself Jeff — online in 2018 and started chatting after he lied about his age. But the chats took a twisted turn when she sent the graphic images, which the accused predator used to manipulate her into maintaining contact, cops said. Seth Michael Winkelhake, 40, was arrested Tuesday and charged with first-degree rape and other sexual offenses. Clackamas County Sheriffâs Office The Hillsboro man convinced the girl to meet in person when she turned 16 — and showed up to the perverse rendezvous in Oak Grove with his face concealed with a ski mask or cloth. Deputies said Winkelhake blindfolded the victim before putting her in his car and driving to local parks where he carried out the sick acts — despite her efforts to stop them — from 2021 to 2024. Officials now believe there may be more victims. The alleged perv, who volunteered with local education organizations in the Portland area, is suspected of using Facebook, Instagram and AntiLand, an anonymous chat room, to hunt for young girls online. Cops said he often used fake names like Jeff, Don Jon and Marc to bait his victims, and had a 2018 Nissan Frontier and a 2002 Volkswagen Golf registered in his name. Officials now believe there may be more victims and have made public the cars registered to the accused predator. Clackamas County Sheriffâs Office Winkelhake was arraigned Wednesday on 23 felony and misdemeanor charges, including first-degree rape, third-degree sexual abuse, first-degree encouraging child sex abuse and luring a minor. He is being held without bail at Clackamas County Jail in Oregon City. Anyone with information can call the sheriff's office tip line at 503-723-4949 or submit an online form.
