Fauquier boil notice cancelled

A boil water notice for the Fauquier water system has been lifted.

The Regional District of Central Kootenay issued the notice on July 30 when the pump for the chemical disinfection system failed, resulting in free chlorine residual concentrations below Health Canada’s minimum standards.

The RDCK says repairs have been completed, and water quality tests indicate the water quality is now good.

The system has 93 active connections and draws water from Heart Creek.
