Kimberley residents on the Mark Creek water system are under a boil water notice.

The City of West Kelowna has rescinded the precautionary water quality advisory for Glenrosa and the boil water notice for Stonegate Court, Helen Gorman Elementary, and four properties on Gates Road.

The advisory and notice were put in place after an accidental water main break on March 19 in the Salmon Road area.

Crews conducted repairs and flushed the system the same evening. However, after a water main break, consecutive days of testing are required to confirm that drinking water meets or exceeds federal and provincial guidelines, which test results have now confirmed.
