Emergency Operations Centre Opened as Precaution in RDOS
The Regional District of Okanagan-Similkameen (RDOS) has opened an Emergency Operations Centre to better deal with potential flooding across the Region. High water in creeks and lakes has raised the potential for damage to property or closure of roads.
At this time road closures have not been issued. Residents can consult www.DriveBC.com for up to the minute updates.
Spring commonly causes localized flooding in creeks, river and lakes. Residents are reminded to keep children and small animals away from creeks and rivers as changes in flow can occur suddenly this time of year.
