Boil Water Advisory Issued in Brome Lake
Read the full story here.

Don't drink the water? No probelm!Brome Lake Issued a Boil Water Notice as of February 20th 2009 and in effect until further notice. (February 24th Update: Advisory has been lifted...go have a glass of clean tap water!)

The population of the Town of Brome Lake using the municipal water system is hereby advised that water must be boiled at least 5 minutes before consumption. This measure is required following the results of sample analysis. It showed coliforms present. Water must be boiled until further notice.

We're fortunate that we have an SAQ in Knowlton to get us through these tough times without clean water!
