Boil Water Advisories Impact Hundreds Across New Mexico, Florida, Canada

Multiple communities across the United States and Canada are currently under boil water advisories due to water contamination concerns and infrastructure work. In Saint John, Canada, about 800 residents in the Forest Hills area are required to boil water following a planned water main shutdown, with the order expected to last until at least Monday pending water testing results. In San Miguel County, New Mexico, a boil water advisory affects 136 residents after E. coli bacteria were detected in the San Juan MDWCA Water System. Gulf Cove in Charlotte County, Florida, is also under a precautionary boil water notice due to potential contamination, with residents advised to boil water for drinking and cooking and use bottled water as an alternative; authorities have not yet provided a timeline for resolution. These advisories emphasize public health precautions, and officials are actively monitoring the situations to lift restrictions once water safety is confirmed. Residents in all affected areas are urged to follow boil water guidelines to ensure safety until further notice.
