Regional District of North Okanagan (RDNO) advises some customers supplied by Greater Vernon Water (GVW) in the area along De Roo, Briggs, and Dixon Dam Roads (see Map) in the South BX are on a precautionary Water Quality Advisory (WQA) until April 24, 2024 at 4:00 pm
A maintenance event caused the loss of water and pressure to some customers in the affected area. As a result, the RDNO is required to issue a precautionary WQA to affected areas, flush, and complete water sampling to ensure the continued safety of the water system.
Residents 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. An outside tap is preferred.
The level of service and treatment provided by the RDNO has been maintained; however some customers may wish to boil their water for at least one minute when preparing any food, drinking, washing fruits & vegetables, making beverages or ice or when brushing teeth.
