What to do during a boil water notice?

Do not drink the water without boiling it. Bring all water to a boil, let it boil for one minute and let it cool before using, or use bottled water.

Boiled or bottled water should be used for drinking, making ice, brushing teeth, washing dishes, and food preparation until further notice. Boiling kills bacteria and other organisms in the water.

This page will be updated as soon as we know more information.
