FIRE HYDRANT AND WATER MAIN REPAIR ON 15TH 200 BLOCK, OLE STREET AND 221 MOUNTAIN STREET NORTH

UPDATE: This boil water advisory has been lifted as of 3:30 pm on September 2, 2020

Due to precautionary maintenance, the City of Morden has issued a boil water advisory for the affected area, specifically 15th 200 block, Ole Street, and 221 Mountain Street North starting on August 26th at 9:00 am. Distribution depressurization can compromise the safety of the water supply, therefore all water users in that area are asked to follow the boil water advisory precautions below once water service has been restored.


Residents in the impacted area should have received a notice letting them know they will be affected. Test results determining that the boil water advisory can be lifted are anticipated to be back by August 31, 2020.

All water should be brought to a rolling boil for at least one minute before it is used for:

  • Drinking and ice-making

  • Preparing beverages, such as infant formula

  • Preparing food

  • Brushing teeth 

It is not necessary to boil tap water used for other household purposes, such as laundry or washing dishes. Adults and older children that are able to avoid swallowing the water can wash, bathe, or shower. Young children should be sponge bathed. If boiling is not feasible, an alternate and safe supply of water should be used.
