The timing is incredible. A failure in the chlorination system forcing thousands of Saint Johners to boil their water all weekend and the news came on World Water Day.
Nancy Moar from the City's Communications Department tells CHSJ News people in Millidgeville are being asked to conserve their water.
She says residents in Millidgeville will be accessing their water through a chlorinated storage tank but they are asking them to limit their usage over the weekend.
Two clear tests 24 hours apart are needed before a boil water order can be lifted.
Moar says it possible testing could begin Saturday night meaning the earliest it could be lifted is Monday.
