Boil Water Advisory Issued for Tavistock

TAVISTOCK – Boil water advisory issued for William Street south of Wettlaufer Street

A boil water advisory has been issued by Southwestern Public Health for residents connected to the municipal water supply on William Street south of Wettlaufer Street in Tavistock.

Until further notice, Public Health advises residents to bring water to a rolling boil for at least one minute before using it for drinking, making infant formula or juice, brushing teeth, washing raw foods or making ice.

This advisory is being issued as a precautionary measure in case of potential contamination following a water main break/pressure loss. Residents in this area were notified of the boil water advisory tonight and will be notified again when they can return to normal water use.

See the advisory on the Southwestern Public Health website at https://www.swpublichealth.ca/.../boil-water-advisory.../
