Original Notice - July 28, 2025
In conjunction with Interior Health, the Regional District of North Okanagan (RDNO) advises some customers supplied by Greater Vernon Water that they are on a precautionary Boil Water Notice (BWN) until sampling results confirm the drinking water is safe. The area affected includes parts of Goose Lake Road (see map).
A power disruption at a pump station in this area resulted in a loss of water pressure for some customers. Service has since been restored. The RDNO is issuing a BWN to the affected area while sampling and testing of the water main occurs to ensure the continued safety of the water system.
What should customers do?
When the water service resumes, properties 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.
The level of service and treatment provided by the RDNO has been maintained; however, some customers may wish to boil their water for at least one minute when preparing food, drinking, washing fruits and vegetables, making beverages or ice or brushing their teeth.
Updates will be posted to www.rdno.ca/news (filter by Water Notices).
If you have any questions, please contact the RDNO Utilities Department at 250-550-3700.
