Notification Listings
Interior Health provides listings of water system notifications as information only. The listings are linked to a live database and are updated as soon as the information is changed in our software. You can look up a specific water system by accessing our Water Notifications page and selecting the region where the water supply system is located. Scroll down the alphabetical list to locate the system. Not every water supply system is listed with Interior Health and therefore this inventory is not wholly inclusive.
Public Notification Levels and their definitions:
Water Quality Advisory
Used in situations in which the public health threat posed by the water supply system is modest, and actions can be taken to reduce the risks through means other than requiring a Boil Water Notice or Do Not Use Water Notice.
Boil Water Notice
Used in situations in which the public health threat posed by the water supply system is significant and the nature of the threat is one that can be effectively addressed through boiling of the water.
How to safely consume water on a Boil Water Notice
Do Not Use Water Notice
Used in situations where a significant public health threat exists in relation to the water supply system and the threat cannot be adequately addressed through a Water Quality Advisory or Boil Water Notices.
