Discolored water in residences around De Maisonneuve Blvd.

*Latest update :
Montreal confirmed that this issue is a result of sediment deposits in the conduit and not an issue relating to water quality or any bacteria.
Residents experiencing this issue are asked to keep their taps running at a constant stream to flush the system.*

Please note that you may experience discoloured tap water if you live near Dorchester, Greene (south of Dorchester), Olivier, Victoria and De Maisonneuve. This is due to the reopening of a water main by the City of Montreal on De Maisonneuve. This is necessary to complete the rehabilitation project of the De Maisonneuve network. Please note that the compliant water sample results were received by Montreal prior to the opening of the 20″ water main.

This water discoloration issue has been reported to the City of Montreal who is already working on the solution. We recommend that you run the water until it is clear before using it.
