Water quality advisory lifted

After consulting with Interior Health, the Regional District of Central Okanagan has rescinded a Water Quality Advisory for customers of the Killiney Beach Water System in the Central Okanagan West Electoral Area.

The advisory affecting approximately 290 properties has been in place since June 9 as a precaution following the addition of equipment to the Winchester Control Room. Since then system has been completely flushed and testing results indicate the system is within acceptable and safe Canadian guidelines for drinking water quality.

The Regional District provides water service to just over 1,000 connections in six service areas.
