LETHBRIDGE – UPDATE: Lethbridge County says the Boil Water Order issued Thursday, July 5, will extend into the week and will continue on until further notice for affected residents. 

ONLY LNCPWC customers/water users located north of the Oldman River, east of HWY 25 and HWY 843, and west of HWY 845 are affected.

Alberta Health Services has issued a boil water order for certain water customers who are part of the Lethbridge North County Potable Water Co-op (LNCPWC).

Water users located north of the Oldman River, east of Highway 25, and west of Highway 845 are affected by the boil water order.

According to AHS, an unlocated and undetermined potable water line leak that depressurized parts of the distribution system is to blame. They noted that conditions exist that could make the drinking water supply dangerous for public health.
