A boil water advisory is now in effect for the Sandy Bay Ojibway First Nation.
The advisory was put in place due to higher-than-normal turbidity (cloudiness) in the community's water supply. Turbidity means there are tiny particles like dirt or sediment in the water. While there may not be germs present, it does make it harder to properly disinfect water.
Until further notice, bring water to a rolling boil for at least one minute before drinking, using for cooking, brushing teeth, or washing food.
You can still bathe and do laundry as usual. Avoid swallowing any water.
