SASKATOON – A Precautionary Drinking Water Advisory (PWDA) has been lifted in Saskatoon after strenuous testing confirmed the water supply system is safe.
The PWDA was issued after a primary water main break north of 42nd Street on Friday. The break was fixed that evening.
As a precaution, the city issued a PDWA while waiting for bacteriological tests to come back negative in the water supply system.
