Boil water notice rescinded!

⚠️ 𝐁𝐨𝐢𝐥 𝐖𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐍𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐑𝐞𝐬𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐝 – 𝐖𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐒𝐚𝐟𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐮𝐦𝐞

The boil water notice issued earlier today has now been rescinded. Domestic water within the Summerland distribution system is rated as “GOOD” and is safe to consume.

𝐁𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐠𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝:

👉 Late this morning, a vital piece of equipment on the coagulant injection system at the Water Treatment Plant failed, temporarily stopping the flow of coagulant to the process
👉 Staff were prepared with a replacement mechanism, and the issue was repaired quickly
👉 Interior Health has now provided the all-clear
👉 At no point was disinfection through chlorine injection ever compromised

We appreciate the public’s patience and understanding while this issue was resolved.

Thank you to our operations staff for their quick response and continued commitment to water safety.
