Water Quality Advisory rescinded for Cranbrook
The Water Quality Advisory issued by the City of Cranbrook on Friday, March 7 has now been rescinded.
The water quality advisory was issued late last week, following the quick snowmelt and rain on Thursday and Friday, which created a slight increase in the turbidity levels in the Phillips Reservoir (pictured) – the source for the City of Cranbrook’s municipal water supply. As a precaution the water quality advisory was put into place as required by the Interior Health Authority for those residents with children, the elderly and those with weakened immune systems.
Testing of the municipal water system was conducted by Public Works throughout the weekend. The final test came back clear on Tuesday morning prompting the advisory to be rescinded.
