As of 9:30 pm, we are on track to have the watermain repair completed this evening, and water pressure restored during the night. Final backfill and cleanup will be done tomorrow, along with system flushing and water testing.
As this event has resulted in a significant disturbance to the system, a Boil Water Advisory is in effect until further notice. Please continue to check this Canadian Lakeview Estates News and Service Notices page for outage updates.
We truly appreciate your cooperation and patience over the past day, and apologise for the inconvenience.
Precautions During a Boil Water Advisory
During a Boil Water Advisory, tap water used for the following purposes should be brought to a rolling boil for at least one (1) minute prior to use.
- Drinking and ice cubes
- Liquids or food (e.g. tea or soup) that will not be boiled for at least one (1) minute
- Washing fruits and vegetables being eaten raw
- Brushing teeth or cleaning dental and medical appliances
- Preparing baby food and infant formula
- Bathing infants
Adults, adolescents, and older children may shower, bathe, or wash using tap water, but should avoid swallowing water. It’s recommended to sponge bathe infants if using tap water. Tap water may be used for dishes washed by machine but add bleach to water used for dishes washed by hand. Water used for other household purposes does not need to be boiled.
This Advisory will be rescinded once the water has been demonstrated safe to drink. Please check this webpage for updates.
