The town of Lanigan will be without water during the majority of the day on Tuesday, August 14th, 2018 from 7:30 am - 7:30 pm as the town goes through an upgrade to the water treatment plant's distribution piping.

Following the upgrades, a PDWA will be issued until further notice.

During a PDWA the Government of Saskatchewan gives these notes:

Boil all water, used for drinking purposes, for at least one minute, at a rolling
boil, prior to use.
• Boiled water to be used for other activities where it may be ingested, including:
-Brushing teeth or soaking false teeth
-Washing fruits and vegetables
-Food or drink which will not be subsequently heated
-Ice cubes
• Not drink from any public drinking fountains supplied with water from the public
water supply.
• Under most circumstances, it is not necessary to boil water used for other
household purposes. Adults, adolescents, and older children may shower, bathe
or wash using tap water but should avoid swallowing the water. Dishes and
laundry may be washed in tap water, either by hand or by machine.
• Ensure that younger children and infants are sponge bathed.
• Use an alternative water source known to be safe, if consumers do not wish to
boil the water.
• Consult with your physician if you have cuts or rashes that are severe before
using the water.
