Boil Water Notice back on
The City of Kimberley has issued a BOIL WATER NOTICE for all users in Kimberley in accordance with Interior Heath’s Water Quality Notification Program.
The city continually monitors the turbidity levels and posts the average daily readings on the website at Kimberley.ca
The turbidity index has three levels of water quality reading: Good, Fair and Poor. All users are to boil their water when the water quality is ‘poor.’
Interior Health recommends that all customers drink boiled water or a safe alternative until further notice. Water intended for drinking, washing fruits and vegetables, making juice or ice, or brushing teeth should be boiled for one minute. Water should then be cooled and stored in a clean, covered container in the fridge. Customers may also choose to use bottled or distilled water, or water that has been filtered through a well-maintained treatment device.

A previous boil water notice on May 24 was rescinded to a water quality advisory on May 26.
