As of April 26, 2024 Alberta Health Services confirmed that satisfactory water quality has been restored to the Salt Box Coulee Waterworks System and the Rocky View County water systems that draw water from it. As water quality has been restored, the boil water order issued April 19, 2024, has been lifted. All residents and businesses in these communities can return to normal water consumption practices as boiling is no longer required, provided they flush their plumbing systems prior to initial use.
