Update: 2:15 pm January 15, 2022
We are happy to inform you that the water issue has been repaired. A hydro vac truck has been dispatched and is enroute to help rebuild the pressure so that all homes can regain full use of their water services as soon as possible.
We would like to thank you all for your patience and understanding during this unforeseeable issue along with our utility team who have been working around the clock to mitigate the situation and implement solutions to alleviate this from happening in the future.

Update 8:50am January 14, 2022
There is a possible break in the high pressure main. We are doing what we can but there is going to be low or no water. The areas that will be affect most are at the top of Sakwi, Edelweiss and Snowflake till further notice or at least until after the weekend. This is dependent on the availability of parts and issues found.
Thank you for your patience and understanding during this issue.

Update 4:30pm January 13, 2022
Please note the water pressure could take up to 4 hours to be back to normal. The more you refrain from checking the water pressure the sooner it will be back to normal.
The water has been repaired and we are re-pressurizing the line.

Update 11:30am January 13 2022
We are in the midst of an emergency water Main repair. Upper Edelweiss and some of upper Sakwi will be experiencing loss of pressure. There is a good possibility the mountains water will need to be completely shut down by noon today to address this issue.
We will post on the website with any updates.
Thank you for your understanding and patience with this matter.
