Construction Corrections and Multiple Tests Passed as Per Northern Health Requirements
PRINCE RUPERT, DECEMBER 19th, 2025 – Residents are advised that the Boil Water Notice has now been rescinded following confirmation with Northern Health that construction issues have been rectified. Water samples passed multiple tests over the past few weeks, which was a condition to remove the notice.
The notice began in early October as a result of issues with construction related to the BIG Project.
Ongoing major replacement work of water infrastructure has the potential to generate future water quality advisories over the coming weeks and months, and encourage the community to subscribe to emergency alerts to stay informed, here: https://princerupert.connectrocket.com/
We appreciate the community’s continued patience during this more extended notice. For more information on upcoming capital improvements to our water supply infrastructure, go to engage.princerupert.ca/big.
