There will be an inspection of the water treatment plant on Neskantaga First Nation.
While evacuees are in Thunder Bay, officials are trying to figure out what caused an oily sheen, which was discovered last week in the community’s water supply.
The initial results revealed high levels of hydrocarbons.
Indigenous Services Canada has indicated it will provide funding for evacuation efforts, however, Minister Marc Miller hasn’t put a specific number on it.
The minister notes the federal government is funding $16.44 million for a new water 
treatment plant and upgrades to the water distribution and wastewater collection systems.
It’s not clear how long evacuees will remain in Thunder Bay.
