The District has completed an emergency repair to a water main affecting homes on MacGregor Road. To bring the line back into service, crews will be flushing the distribution system.
Impacted properties are:
MacGregor Road: 5873, 5876, 5884, 5885, 5894, 5895, 5907, 5908, 2-5908, 5909, 5911, 5914, 2-5914, 5915, 5918
Somerset Avenue: 5888
As water service is restored, residents may experience air in the lines, discoloured water or sediment. If this occurs, run your cold water taps until the water runs clear.
Residents should take any necessary precautions to protect hot water tanks and other plumbing fixtures or appliances from possible damage. The District accepts no liability for damage resulting from interrupted water service.
As required by Interior Health, a Precautionary Boil Water Notice is now in effect and will remain in place until two (2) negative bacteriological water samples have been received.
While the Notice is in effect, bring water to a rolling boil for at least one minute prior to using for drinking, making ice, cooking, washing food or brushing teeth.
The District recognizes the inconvenience caused by water service disruptions and appreciates your patience and understanding while this necessary work is completed. If you have any questions, please contact the Operations Department at operations@peachland.ca or 250-767-2108.
