Local officials are expected to provide an update on Thursday after the City of Calgary issued a “critical water supply” alert in the morning, as the fallout from a water main break the night before continued to escalate.

“Supply levels have reached a critical state, affecting the city’s ability to provide water to communities and ensure adequate water is available to support emergency fire suppression,” city officials said.

The emergency alert extended restrictions already announced earlier in the day. As of 6:36 a.m. (MST), Calgarians were told they “must conserve water” and should not shower or bathe, or wash dishes or run any appliances that use water.

“We are asking for the public’s support as we manage a critical situation,” Susan Henry, chief of the Calgary Emergency Management Agency, said during a news conference. She said the cause of the break that resulted in the situation is still unknown and being investigated.
