Original notice - February 14, 2025
In conjunction with Interior Health, the Regional District of North Okanagan (RDNO) advises some customers supplied by Greater Vernon Water (GVW) in the Pottery Road area (see map) that they are on a precautionary Boil Water Notice (BWN).
A water main break has resulted in a loss of water pressure and increased turbidity in the area. The precautionary BWN will be in effect until sampling confirms the safety of the water as directed by Interior Health.
What should customers do?
When the water service resumes, properties in the area may experience reduced water pressure, discolouration of the water and/or air. Please run a cold water tap until the water has cleared.
The level of service and treatment provided by the RDNO has been maintained; however, customers in the affected area should boil their water for at least one minute when preparing any food, drinking, washing fruits & vegetables, making beverages or ice or when brushing teeth.
