Precautionary Boil Water Advisory for King’s Park communal well water users in the village of Richmond now lifted

Ottawa Public Health (OPH) has lifted the precautionary boil water advisory affecting approximately 215 ** King’s Park communal well water users in the village of Richmond ** . Water sample results indicate the water is safe for human consumption and other household purposes.

The advisory was issued due to an equipment malfunction which has resulted in a loss of water pressure in the area.  Residents are advised to run the cold water tap for one minute upon first use. Residents affected by this precautionary boil water advisory do not need to get their water tested.
