High Liner Foods was forced to halt production earlier today because the main water line to the plant unexpectedly busted. The Lunenburg-based company will begin repair work on the broken water line later this afternoon. The company's vice president of operations, Lee Obritch says they will temporarily suspend operations at noon. He says that means the night crew won't have to come into work this evening.
Obritch is hopeful the company will resume normal operations on Tuesday morning.
