Boil-water advisory remains in effect at Macdonald Campus
Boil-water advisory remains in effect at Macdonald Campus
As we mentioned in an earlier message, a boil-water advisory is in effect across Macdonald and John Abbott Campus. It will remain in effect for at least another 48 hours.
The advisory does not apply to the staff residences located on Maple St., Macdonald High School nor the rest of Ste-Anne-de-Bellevue, as these locations obtain their water from a different source.
Only tap water that has been boiled for at least one minute should be used for drinking or preparing beverages, washing fruits and vegetables or brushing your teeth. You can find further guidelines on the City of Montreal鈥檚 website . Water bottles were distributed across campus earlier today.
The University tests the water quality in its network weekly. The advisory was issued after the University received a result that did not comply with applicable standards. Until new tests indicate that the water is safe to drink, this advisory will remain in effect.
