LETHBRIDGE COUNTY – The Boil Water Order that was placed on July 5th for Lethbridge North County Potable Water Coop water users has been rescinded.

The LNCPWC sent water samples to Calgary for testing over the weekend, and after testing was complete Alberta Health Services determined the water is safe for consumption.

The Boil Water Order was covering customers/water users located immediately east of Picture Butte (north of the Oldman River, east of HWY 25 and HWY 843, and west of HWY 845).

In a release, the County also offered more information about maintaining cisterns and drinking water safety here.
