Residents and schools in the affected area are advised to:
• Boil all water for at least 1 minute before drinking, cooking, brushing teeth, or preparing food and infant formula.
• Tap water is safe for showering and bathing — but avoid swallowing it.
• Discard ice made from tap water and empty your ice maker.
• Laundry and dishwashing (by hand in hot soapy water or dishwasher) are safe.
• Most filters do not remove bacteria — water should still be boiled before use.
You may notice discoloured water or air in your plumbing. Run cold water until it clears.
An update will be issued once the advisory is lifted.
We appreciate your cooperation and understanding.
