Halifax Water has issued a boil water advisory.

This advisory means that everyone on campus should boil water for at least 1 minute before using it for drinking, preparing infant formula, making ice cubes or juices, washing fruits or vegetables, cooking, brushing teeth, or any other activity requiring human consumption.

This advisory will remain in effect until further notice from Halifax Water. For the duration we will install signs in washrooms and disable the water fountains.

We do not have boiled or bottled water available for everyone on campus. Please consider how you will obtain your own drinkable water either by boiling it at home, boiling it yourself on campus, or bringing bottled water.

Please reach out to Facilities Management if you have any questions or concerns.

Halifax Water has a boil water advisory fact sheet.
