Boil Water Advisory – Clyde River

July 14, 2025

The Department of Health is advising all residents of Clyde River to boil their water before consumption until further notice. This is a safety measure due to high turbidity (cloudy water) levels.

During a boil water advisory, all water for consumption must be brought to a rolling boil for a minimum of one full minute.

It is essential that all water be boiled for the following uses:

• Drinking.
• Preparing infant formulas.
• Preparing juices and ice cubes.
• Washing fruits and vegetables.
• Cooking; or
• Brushing of teeth.

Water can be boiled either in a pot or kettle on a stove or an electric kettle without an automatic shut-off.  The boil water advisory is only for the uses listed above.

The Department of Health will notify the community when the boil water advisory is lifted.
