Prince Rupert city officials have announced that the boil water notice issued in early October has now been lifted. Northern Health confirmed that the issues stemming from construction work on the BIG Project have been resolved, and multiple water quality tests over the past few weeks have met the required safety standards.
The notice was initially issued due to construction-related concerns as part of the city’s ongoing major water infrastructure upgrades. City officials emphasize that while the boil water notice has been rescinded, the replacement and improvement work continues, and future water quality advisories may still occur over the coming weeks and months.
Residents are encouraged to stay informed about any updates by subscribing to emergency alerts through the city’s ConnectRocket system. The city also thanks residents for their patience during the extended notice period and reminds them that detailed information about the BIG Project and upcoming water infrastructure improvements can be found online.
By keeping up to date with advisories, Prince Rupert residents can ensure their households remain safe and prepared throughout ongoing water system improvements.
