Alberta Health Services lifted the “Do Not Consume Water” Advisory for the community of Janvier.
Officials confirmed water quality in the distribution system is safe for all homes and residences in the hamlet, including the Chipewyan Prairie First Nation.
Residents may also resume use of tap water for the following:
- Cooking
