The Prince Albert Rural Water Utility has issued a precautionary drinking water advisory for residents living South of Lindsay Road to the South Saskatchewan River, and East of Highway 11 to the Fenton Ferry Road.
The advisory went into effect at 9 a.m. Friday morning due to water main repair and a system depressurization of the Prince Albert Rural Water Utility’s distribution system, downstream of the Royal Booster Station. Because of this, safety of this drinking water cannot be guaranteed.
According to a release from the Water Security Agency, residents are ordered to boil all drinking water for at least one minute, at a rolling boil, before drinking.
Boiled water should also be used for brushing teeth or soaking false teeth, washing fruits and vegetables, as an ingredient in food which will not be heated or for ice cubes.
