There's also an excellent thread started by urska@lemmy.ca

As said in the Water Main Break Update/livestream, only the Bowness has been issued the boil water advisory.

HOWEVER;
As of [June 6, 2024 @6:36am MDT (UTC-6)],
Calgary has enacted a citywide fire and level/stage 4 water restriction.

• the citywide fire ban includes any outdoor use of fire such as BBQ, fire pits, etc.

The City of Calgary is requesting all Calgarians to reduce all noncritical/recreational water usage as the Feeder Main (which is responsible for moving water across the city) has been severely damaged and it is currently unknown when the supply issue will be resolved.

[UPDATE: June 7, 2024]

Calgary Newsroom Update #4

The City of Calgary continues to repair a large water main break in the Bowness and Montgomery area and this afternoon crews succeeded in uncovering the damaged pipe.

• the break has been found, however it will still take time for the repairs to happen,
  • as such the city is requesting all Calgarians to continue reducing water usage for the next couple of days

I will try to update this post as frequently as I can as more information is shared!
