UPDATE: Boil water advisory lifted for South Shore communities

LONGUEUIL – Residents in Brossard, Saint-Lambert, Greenfield Park and the Lemoyne sector, can now safely drink their tap water.

A boil water advisory that was issued Christmas Day, has now been lifted. City officials tweeted the news Sunday afternoon.

Longueuil city officials issued the advisory after a power failure at the Le Royer water treatment plant on Friday, which caused a drop in water pressure.

The latest health and medical news emailed to you every Sunday.

Preliminary tests showed that water quality was not affected by the power failure but the advisory was being maintained as a precautionary measure.

Results of a second round of testing Sunday confirmed the preliminary findings and led to the lifting of the advisory.
