Boil Water Notice Rescinded - Water Safe to Consume

May 06, 2026
Boil Water Notice Rescinded - Water Safe to Consume
The boil water notice issued earlier today has now been rescinded. Domestic water within the Summerland distribution system is rated as “GOOD” and is safe to consume.

𝐁𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐠𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝:

👉 Late this morning, a vital piece of equipment on the coagulant injection system at the Water Treatment Plant failed, temporarily stopping the flow of coagulant to the process
👉 Staff were prepared with a replacement mechanism, and the issue was repaired quickly
👉 Interior Health has now provided the all-clear
👉 At no point was disinfection through chlorine injection ever compromised

We appreciate the public’s patience and understanding while this issue was resolved.

Thank you to our operations staff for their quick response and continued commitment to water safety.
