Notice of Emergency Water Shutoff - Park Ave & Lane

April 17, 2025

UPDATE 3:15 PM:  Emergency Water Shutoff Update - the leak has been isolated, and repairs are underway.

We currently have an Emergency Water Shutdown in the Park Ave. and Park Lane areas due to a contractor making contact with a water line.

We anticipate repairs to be complete and water pressure to return later this afternoon. If you experience water turbidity, we recommend you flush your waterlines by running your outside water tap until it runs clear (usually 5-10 minutes) and the water has no noticeable taste or odor.
 
If you experience persistent water issues, please fill out a request for service at fernie.ca/RFS
 
Thank you to the impacted residents for their patience as we complete this repair.
