In Saskatchewan, several Precautionary Drinking Water Advisories (PDWAs) have been issued as a result of power outages causing
depressurization, more specifically, those to the Town of Bienfait, the Hamlet of Hitchcock, the Village of Macoun and the Village
of Manor. Advance notice of pending PDWAs have been issued to both the Town of Nokomis and City of Warman; in the case of Nokomis,
the advisory will be in effect June 18 due to disruption to the raw water supply line which will affect the treated water supplied to the town.
In Warman, a partial advisory will be in effect June 18 due to a hydrant repair causing depressurization. PDWAs have also been issued to
residents and users on the Weldon Rural Farm Group potable water distribution system, due to depressurization resulting from maintenance;
to residents and users at the Whitespruce Centre due to depressurization of the distribution system; to the Northern Village of
Ile-a-la-Crosse due to depressurization from a line break in the distribution system.
A news report was just received stating that the Town of Midale is now under a boil water advisory due to the power outage that affected
much of southeast Saskatchewan as a result of a severe storm in the region yesterday. SaskPower crews worked all night into this morning
in order to restore power to most of the affected region.
