Boil Water Advisories Prompted by Breaks in Vernon, Elliot Lake, Dundee

Recent water main breaks in Vernon and Dundee have prompted precautionary advisories for residents. In Vernon, a break caused water pressure loss and increased turbidity, leading the Regional District of North Okanagan to issue a precautionary water quality advisory while testing occurs, advising residents to boil water for cooking and drinking. Similarly, Dundee experienced a water main break that resulted in a boil water advisory, with the village urging residents to boil water for at least one minute before consumption due to potential contamination risks. The break in Dundee has been repaired, but the advisory will remain in effect until tests confirm the water's safety. Both advisories emphasize the importance of ensuring water quality until official clearance is provided. Residents in both areas are encouraged to stay updated through local channels for further information.
