Boil water notice issued for Village of Cato

CATO, N.Y. — Residents in the Village of Cato should boil their water before using it or use bottled water until further notice after the water system lost pressure because of a water line repair, according to a release form the Cayuga County Health Department.
When water mains lose pressure, the chances that untreated water and harmful microbes can enter your water increase, the health department said.
Once the water line is repaired, the Village of Cato will take samples to confirm the distribution system is not contaminated, according to the release.
The boil water order is expected to last a few days.
“Harmful microbes in drinking water can cause diarrhea, cramps, nausea, headaches, or other symptoms and may pose a special health risk for infants, some elderly, and people with severely compromised immune systems,” the health department said.
“But these symptoms are not just caused by microbes in drinking water.
If you experience any of these symptoms and they persist, you should seek medical advice.” People with questions may contact the Village of Cato at 315-626-2397 or the Cayuga County Health Department at 315-253-1560.

Prince Rupert downgrades boil water advisory; ‘lessons learned’ report to come

PRINCE RUPERT, B.C.
– The City of Prince Rupert, B.C., has lifted a boil water advisory that left 12,000 residents without potable tap water for six weeks and says it’s working on a "lessons learned" report for the future.
The city says Northern Health gave it approval to downgrade the notice to a water quality advisory, which means some risk remains for sensitive individuals.
Under a water quality advisory, newborns, the elderly and people with weakened immune systems are still encouraged to boil tap water for one minute before consuming it.
The city says residents who still see milky or sediment-filled water should run cold water, preferably through a bathtub or laundry sink taps, until it clears.
The boil water advisory was put in place after a dry summer followed by a storm surge caused a spike in levels of cryptosporidium and giardia, which cause intestinal illnesses.
The length of the advisory prompted Community for Clean Water, a citizen advocate group, to criticize city officials for not having a preparedness plan in place
