Rule changes for boil-water advisories could impact communities, says Municipalities N.L.

A new ruling from the provincial government on boil-water advisories could impact communities that can't afford clean water, according to the president of Municipalities Newfoundland and Labrador.

Towns under a boil-water advisory would have to address the advisory before they apply for funding.
