Town moves to stage 3 – Once a week watering

Stage 3 Water Restrictions take effect July 30, 2021 for water system users within the Town boundaries and portions of RDOS Electoral Area ‘C’ (rural Oliver).

Residential Users – One Day Per Week:
Odd numbered houses – Wednesday
Even numbered houses – Friday

Residents are encouraged to adjust their residential underground irrigation systems to water lawns, trees and shrubs between midnight and 7:00 a.m. on their watering day. Extra hand watering is permitted for personal gardens, trees and shrubs.

Agriculture, Commercial and Industrial Users:

At Stage 2 users were asked to reduce 30% – the Town is asking these users to continue to reduce irrigation use for farming, commercial and industrial use.

Agricultural customers (farm status) may continue to water to maintain the health of their crops but are being asked to voluntarily reduce consumption and continue to monitor for leaks and reducing watering during the heat of the day if possible.
