Fire pumps started up this afternoon which disturbed sediment in the watermains, resulting in discoloured water throughout the island. Please let cold water run until clear.
A precautionary 'Boil Water Advisory' is being issued for Bay Street (from Centre Road to Trapper Street) and
North Street to Jaban Street (back of GGs).
Thank you for patience as we work to fix this situation. The contractors responsible for the repairs are awaiting parts, which are expected to arrive on Friday.
High demand for water this morning caused fire pumps to start up, disturbing sediment in the water mains and resulted in discoloured water throughout the island. Please run your cold water taps until clear.
There will be some activity with hydrants Tuesday, April 9, 2024, which may stir up particles in the distribution system. As a result, residents could experience discoloured and/or cloudy water conditions and may also experience a temporary drop in water pressure.
A precautionary boil water advisory has been issued for the areas of Niskaway to Lagoon Road, including Mahekun Street, as indicated in our post from earlier today.
