Some residents of the South BX in the Regional District of North Okanagan (RDNO) are on a precautionary water quality advisory.
The RDNO said the customers supplied by Greater Vernon Water (GVW) in the area along De Roo, Briggs, and Dixon Dam Roads (click here to see the maps) in the South BX are on the advisory (WQA) until April 24, 2024 at 4:00 p.m.
“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,” a RDNO news release stated.
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.
