The City of Kelowna Water Utility, in consultation with the Interior Health Authority, has lifted the Water Quality Advisory for residents and businesses located north of and including K.L.O. Road. The Water Advisory for City of Kelowna Water Utility customers south of K.L.O Road remains in place.
The advisory was originally issued on Friday, May 12, for all residents and businesses on the City of Kelowna Water Utility, after elevated turbidity levels were noted at city water intakes.
Turbidity refers to fine suspended particles of clay, silt, organic and inorganic matter, plankton and other microscopic organisms that are picked up by water as it passes through a watershed.
