BOIL WATER ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT
The Municipal District of St. Stephen would like to provide client on the municipal water system with an update to our current Boil Water Advisory situation.
Testing taken at the water treatment plant indicates that our water quality continues to normalize. Additionally, testing taken at the other end of our system, being the Milltown area also showed signs of improvement. Unfortunately, levels have not yet recovered to the point to where Public Health will permit the removal of the Boil Water Advisory.
Additionally, we would like to advise the public that this morning our community experienced an infrastructure failure at the main water well that serves our community. This failure has not yet negatively impacted the progress made towards lifting the Boil Water Advisory. Until the extent of the damage is fully known, the possibility exists that this damage, or the work necessary to repair it, could cause further Boil Water Advisories. More information will be released once it is available.
Our team, along with our engineers and other contracted expertise are working diligently to undertake whatever work is necessary to bring the water quality back within the accepted parameters.
