Update: Boil Water Advisory Lifted For Brussels

Update February 18:

The Municipality of Huron East has lifted the boil water advisory for Brussels.

Around 1,800 customers in Brussels have been asked to boil their water Monday morning.

Huron East officials say a major watermain break in the town has lead to water service being affected.

They claim the boiling water advisory is just a precautionary measure and is not the result of bacteria.

In a media release, they ask you bring your water to a rolling boil for one minute before using it to: - drink - gargle, brush your teeth or rinse dentures - wash fruits, vegetables or other food - make ice, juices, puddings or other mixes - make baby food or formula

Bathing, washing, showering and laundry may be carried out as usual.
