"Welcome to the Fletcher Creek Improvement District"
The FCID provides water to its members. It maintains an intake, distribution system, an emergency pumping system and works to protect source water quality.
Held Wednesday, April 26th at 7 pm at Kaslo Seniors Hall
Trustees continuing: Laurie Hartland, Lance McLaren, Tina McLaren, David Sheppard
One trustee position left vacant
Trustee honorarium remains the same at $250 per year, or $500 per year for the chair.
2017 Budget allows for 3 pilot POE units to be installed
Centralized water treatment is being investigated again because Interior Health will likely require 4-log virus inactivation (i.e. using chlorination or high-dose UV), which is an expensive addition to POE units.
FCID has $156,484.41 in cash assets as of February 28, 2017.
FCID now has its own phone number (voice mail checked daily): 250-509-4215
IHA says the POE units will lift the Boil Water Notice but a Water Quality Advisory will remain in place unless 4-log virus inactivation is also achieved (i.e. chlorination), which is not usually done by POE units.
FCID will not be supplying “potable water” if a Water Quality Advisory is still in effect.
AGM will be April 26 at 7 pm at Kaslo Seniors Hall

Boil Water Notice
Due to higher than acceptable levels of total coliforms in the water, Interior Health has issued an indefinite Boil Drinking Water Notice. All water to be consumed must be brought to a full rolling boil for at least one minute. Use boiled water for drinking, washing food, making ice, making baby formula and brushing teeth. This is especially important for the elderly, young children and immunocompromised individuals. Please advise guests and renters.
