Precautionary Maintenance: Boil Water Advisory Notice

The Boil Water Advisory Notice for 19th Street has been LIFTED!

The sample results came back and the water is now safe for use.

Thank you for your cooperation and patience during this period.

Date and Time _November 8, 2023, 8 am – 5 pm 

Location: 19th Street from Wardrop Street to Thornhill Service Road 

The City of Morden will be shutting off water service to complete maintenance or repair. 

Distribution depressurization can compromise the safety of the water supply. All water users are asked to follow the boil water advisory precautions below once the water service has been restored. 

 

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 who 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. 

 

To avoid purchasing bottled water, water users can store tap water in clean containers for drinking water purposes and should fill the bathtub to use as toilet flushing water during the service interruption. 

We anticipate water test results by November 15, 2023, and unless otherwise notified you can begin 

normal water use after that time. We will post a Notice on our website: www.mymorden.ca on the Home page or under Latest News. You may also call the Utilities Department if you have any questions or concerns at 204-822-5119
