Water Quality Advisory Rescinded for the Woodbury Village Water System
November 8, 2024
Nelson, BC: The Regional District of Central Kootenay (RDCK) is pleased to announce, effective immediately, the Water Quality Advisory issuedfor users on the Woodbury Village Water System has been rescinded.
On October 5, 2018 a Boil Water Notice was issued due to treatment not meeting Provincial requirements for surface water. Equipment upgrades to the treatment facility were installed in May 2024 under an Interior Health Construction Permit. During the commissioning period of the upgraded facility, the Environmental Health Officer agreed to reduce the long-standing Boil Water Notice to a Water Quality Advisory.
With successful commissioning of the upgraded facility, and under the direction of the Environmental Health Office, Woodbury Village water system is no longer under a drinking water advisory.
The RDCK wishes to thank Electoral Area D Director, Aimee Watson, for contributing Community Works Grant funding, and the Woodbury Village community members for their patience.
Senior government grant funding and provincial Growing Communities funding provided a large portion of the financial contributions necessary for these upgrades.
