The Town of Arnprior has issued an emergency warning to residents advising them not to consume or bathe with the water coming from their taps.
According to a release from the municipality, northwest of Ottawa, the warning follows a loss of pressure in the water distribution system.
Town officials stress that this is not a “boil water” advisory, which would allow the water to be consumed for drinking or cooking after it had been sterilized.
Instead, it’s a full warning to residents to stay away from the water in their taps. Drinking and bathing are to be avoided.
Clean drinking water supplies are being set up at the Nick Smith Centre on James Street. Officials are urging residents to monitor local media and consult the Town of Arnprior’s website for updates.
The town said the advisory is issued as a precaution and will be rescinded once the Town and Renfrew County and District Health Unit can confirm that water in the distribution system is safe to drink. The town is coordinating water sampling and quality testing in order to make this determination.
The water advisory is on for a minimum of 24 hours; however it could be extended if required.
