The Makkovik Inuit Community Government strongly urges residents to keep the water running in their homes to avoid freeze ups.

Even during the warmer days, the temperatures can drop rapidly in the evenings and freeze ups can occur when you least expect. The severity of each freeze up is different but taking proactive steps (leaving water running) will give you and the town an extra peace of mind.

NEW SERVICE FEE FOR THAWING OF WATER LINES

Effective immediately, there will be a $120.00 service fee for anyone requesting assistance to thaw out water lines. Senior Residents, over the age of 65, will not be charged a service fee.

Makkovik Inuit Community Government received satisfactory results for the water samples taken on November 4, 2019 and would like to advise the public that the BOIL WATER ADVISORY IS REMOVED as of November 7, 2019
