As Osoyoos Operational Services staff prepare water systems for irrigation, customers may experience discoloured water. The high demand on wells between now and October may cause intermittent and unpredictable periods of water discoloration.

If residential water is discoloured, it is recommended to turn on a tap and run cold water for 10 minutes or until the water clears.

Should brown water persist please contact the Operational Services Department at pubworks@osoyoos.ca or call 250-495-6213.
