Some water consumers in the Vandervoort area are under the direction of a boil order that was issued yesterday. The Vandervoort – Hatton Water Association is in the process of fixing a line and the water had to be turned off for a time. For precautionary measures, they have issued a boil order for the areas in the city of Vandervoort and along Highway 246 until Thursday.
According the Center for Disease Control, boiling water at a full rolling boil for one minute is sufficient to kill any bacteria that may be present. Store boiled water in clean containers after cooling.
