Ville de Brossard is issuing a precautionary boil-water advisory for its entire territory following laboratory analysis results showing the presence of fecal coliforms in the water system.
We recommend boiling the water for at least one minute before consumption, until further notice.
However, you can use unboiled tap water to wash dishes in hot water, making sure to dry them thoroughly; wash clothes; and take a shower or bath.
For young children and infants, it’s best to wash them with a washcloth to prevent them from swallowing water, and to make sure they don’t bring any soaked objects to their mouths. For more information, visit the website of the Ministère du Développement durable, de l’Environnement et de la Lutte contre les changements climatiques at :

To follow the evolution of the situation, visit Brossard and follow us on Ville de Brossard social media.
