CITY OF KELOWNA BOIL WATER ADVISORIES
LIFTED
All Boil Water Advisories for City of Kelowna Water Utility customers have been removed.
Water main flushing is now complete in lower Okaview, Upper Okaview and the Swick/Rimrock/Timberline area, and all water quality test results show the water meets Candian Drinking Water Guidelines and is suitable to drink.
Residents returning to their homes are advised to run a water tap for five minutes upon entering their homes to ensure any air trapped in the water lines is removed.
This completes flushing and testing of all areas served by the City of Kelowna Water Utility that were previously affected by Boil Water Advisories, and ALL previously issued Boil Water Advisories have been rescinded.
AS OF NOON ON THE 30TH AUGUST 2003 THE CITY OF KELOWNA WATER UTILITY HAS NO BOIL WATER ADVISORIES IN PLACE.
Customers served by the South East Kelowna Irrigation District are reminded a Water Boil Order remains in effect.
