Fall River sewage spill forces boil order

Fall River residents who use surface water for drinking or other household purposes are asked to boil it for the next two days.

A sewage overflow at the municipal facility at Fall River spilled contaminated water into Fletchers Run, which feeds into Fletchers Lake.

Halifax municipal officials ask anyone with questions about the health aspects of the spill to contact the medical officer of health at 481-5800 or Environment Department officials at 424-7773.

Information on the spill itself is available at 490-6950.
