A precautionary boil water advisory in Wekweètì, N.W.T, has been lifted.
A news release on Thursday from the territory’s Health Department says there were no illnesses associated with drinking water.
The advisory was put in place on Jan. 16 after a power outage caused freezing damage to the local water treatment plant.
The news release says the water treatment plant was now functioning normally.
It says normal use of drinking water could resume.
However, the department asked residents to take a few steps before using the water such as running all faucets and fountains for one minute, changing filters, and draining and cleaning water-holding tanks.
