The Capital Regional District has issued a boil-water advisory for Salt Spring Island’s Beddis Water System in consultation with Island Health.
Water quality might have been compromised due to a water-main break, the CRD said.
It said the advisory will be in place until the system can be flushed and water samples indicate there is no further risk to public health.
The measure affects properties east of Stewart Road and includes the following:
• Cusheon Lake Road (east of Stewart Road)
• Stewart Road
• Creekside Drive
• Hillview Place
• Beddis Road
• Cusheon Place
• Lionel Crescent
• Miles Avenue
• Wildwood Drive
• Samuel Crescent
Those affected will be given an all-clear notice when the issue has been resolved, the regional district said.
