Halifax Water has issued a boil water order affecting multiple communities in the Halifax Regional Municipality (HRM). The order covers areas including the entire Halifax peninsula, Bedford, Spryfield, Timberlea, Hammonds Plains, Beaver Bank, and parts of Middle and Lower Sackville. Residents are cautioned to boil water before consumption due to potential contamination risks.

The advisory was prompted by a power outage at the Pockwock Lake Water Treatment Facility, leading to the infiltration of untreated water into the system. This has raised concerns about the safety of drinking water in the affected regions within HRM. Among the impacted areas are Beaver Bank, Fall River, Windsor Junction, Hammonds Plains, and Halifax.

Halifax Water has released a map outlining the specific areas under the boil water order, which was implemented urgently following the facility's power failure. The situation has necessitated residents in Halifax, Dartmouth, Cole Harbour, Middle and Lower Sackville, and other nearby localities to adhere to the advisory until further notice.

In light of this water crisis, Halifax residents are urged to stay vigilant and follow the guidelines provided by Halifax Water to ensure their safety. Boiling water is essential for disinfection purposes during this period to prevent any potential health risks. Remember, awareness and precaution are key when faced with such circumstances.
