The Precautionary Drinking Water Advisory for North Battleford has been rescinded.
As of Friday, the Water Security Agency informed the City of North Battleford the PDWA had been rescinded, in consultation with the Prairie North Health Region.
"This advisory has been rescinded after the maintenance activities were completed and required samples from the distribution system have returned with acceptable results," stated the letter to the City.
The letter, signed by Bruce Dahl, Environment Officer, Drinking Water and Wastewater Management Division, Water Security Agency, also stated, "I would advise the City to issue immediate notice to the public of the rescinding of the advisory. Further, the City may return to its regular sampling intervals. If a positive sample is realized upon immediate return to regular sampling submission, the Water Security Agency may if believed necessary consider the issuance of a new PDWA."
The PDWA was first issued July 6 due to water tower cleaning and a valve failure.
