Déline’s boil water advisory has been lifted.

The Department of Health and Social Services announced the lifting of the ban on Monday. The community and Chief Environment Health Officer determined the water’s turbidity, or clarity, had returned to normal since the advisory was put in place on Friday.

No drinking water-related illnesses have been reported in the community since the boil water advisory was announced. Residents are still encouraged to flush and clean all drinking water sources in their house, including coffee makers, hot water heaters, ice-making machines, and other appliances.
