The Regional District of Central Okanagan (RDCO) has issued a precautionary Boil Water Notice for some residents served by the Killiney Beach water system.
This affects the following properties serviced in the Killiney Beach subdivision located off Westside Road:
- 9614 - 9674 Keithley Road
- 502 - 519 Leah Road
Affected customers were notified of the Boil Water Notice last evening following emergency repairs to a break on the main servicing these properties.
To safely consume water from the tap, these affected Killiney Beach customers must bring water to a rolling boil on a stovetop for at least 60 seconds. Once the boiled water is cooled it may be used for drinking, brushing teeth and washing and preparing food. Customers may wish to consider using an alternate, safe water source such as bottled or distilled water.
The Boil Water Notice will remain in effect until testing confirms water quality is within acceptable Canadian Drinking Water Guidelines.
