A boil water advisory that went into effect Saturday night in Middle Musquodoboit, N.S., has been lifted.

The advisory was lifted at 10:30 a.m. Thursday, according to Halifax Water.

The commission says it began several rounds of testing beginning Sunday morning and all drinking water samples meet established requirements.

A release from Halifax Water outlines steps impacted customers must take before drinking water:

  • Flush any cold water taps for 10 minutes.
  • Most kitchen and other household water filters typically do not remove bacteria or viruses. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for maintenance on these units.
  • Fridges or other appliances that may store water should also be flushed for 10 minutes.
  • Dispose of any ice that was made by an icemaker or ice cube tray during the precautionary boil water advisory.
