Tk’emlúps te Secwépemc has implemented Enhanced Water Use Restrictions, effective August 16. These measures are aimed at reducing community-wide water use by 25%.
Water Restrictions in Effect
- A ban on outdoor watering and irrigating, with the exception of hand-held, spring-loaded nozzles.
- Irrigating by use of sprinklers or automatic irrigation systems is not permitted.
- Washing of vehicles and boats will only be permitted at commercial wash locations unless washing for safety purposes.
- Pressure washing for aesthetic purposes will not be permitted.
These Restrictions are in addition to and separate from the Level 5 Drought Restrictions implemented by the BC Government for the North and South Thompson River Basins, and local watering restrictions previously announced.
Please observe these Restrictions to help protect our natural environment and ensure adequate water supply for all our communities. Thank you for your cooperation.
