Whycocomagh Boil Water Advisory Lifted – June 12, 2026
The Municipality of Inverness County would like to notify users of the Whycocomagh water system that the Boil Water Advisory is no longer in effect as of today, June 12, at 3:30 p.m.
As a result of the advisory being lifted, the water voucher program will end, and outstanding vouchers will not be honoured. Any Whycocomagh residents who would like to collect water at the scheduled water pick-up today may still do so at the Whycocomagh Fire Department from 3:30 p.m. – 6:30 p.m.
The Municipality would like to extend sincere thanks and appreciation to the Whycocomagh Volunteer Fire Department and Whycocomagh Co-op for partnering on resident support programs, the Cape Breton Regional Municipality for assisting with sourcing water when the advisory came into effect, and the businesses and residents of Whycocomagh for their patience, cooperation, and adaptability.
The Municipality will continue to work towards securing a sustainable long-term solution for Whycocomagh’s residents.
