Notice to Greater Vernon Water Customers - Kalamalka Lake Water Source Back On

Type
Water Notice

The Regional District of North Okanagan wishes to inform customers of Greater Vernon Water (GVW) that the Kalamalka Lake water source has been turned back on today, April 12, 2019 as the turbidity in the water has returned to normal conditions.

The decision to turn the Kalamalka Lake water source back on was based on reduced turbidity and good ultra violet disinfection levels. GVW is now returning to normal operations by supplying water from our two sources; the Duteau Creek Water Treatment Plant supplied by Duteau Creek and the Mission Hill Water Treatment Plant supplied by Kalamalka Lake.

Please note there is a possibility that Kalamalka Lake will be turned off again if turbidity levels increase above normal operational guidelines. Staff continue to monitor water quality and will notify customers of any changes.
