A power outage during the afternoon of October 20, 2024 has impacted ultraviolet treatment at the City of Enderby Water Treatment Plant. As technicians work to repair this issue, drinking water will only receive filtration and chlorine disinfection, but not the second ultraviolet disinfection barrier.
The City of Enderby is issuing a Water Quality Advisory effective immediately until such time as the repair has been completed. The Water Quality Advisory applies to all consumers served from the City of Enderby water system.
Users with weakened immune systems or wishing additional protection should take the following precautions when drinking, washing fruit and vegetables, making beverages or ice, or when brushing teeth:
- Boil water rapidly for at least 1 minute or use an alternate safe source of water.
- Use a hand sanitizer after washing your hands.
Another update will be provided at 14:00 on Monday, October 21, 2024 or earlier if the situation changes.
For further information, contact the City of Enderby at 250-838-7230 or info@cityofenderby.com.
