The Village of Salmo is urging resident to put water aside tonight (Thursday October 24th) if you have chlorine sensitivities, as Civic Works crews conduct their fall water chlorination.
The system will be chlorinated when you wake up Friday morning (October 25th).
Residents are asked to refrain from use of sprinklers, washing machines or any extra water usage during this period of time.
Anyone that may have an adverse reaction to chlorine should take appropriate precautions ahead of time.
Chlorine smells may resonate in the water for up to 2 days following the disinfection process.
