This facility is currently under a Boil Water Notice
Underlying Problems: May/June 2018 – Well reported to be dry and the likely cause was noted as “reduced artesian flow” by a professional well driller.

Options of Yukon Labs in Whitehorse and NorLabs in Prince Rupert were provided. June 2019 – Additional issues with well yield requiring repairs to the source/system. | |
Steps Taken to Remedy: Operator contacted EHO Peiris. Emergency works conducted on water system: June 27th 2018 – Well driller pumped/siphoned the water in the well to improve the flow. July 3rd 2018 – BWN signage posted at the camp fill station. Website updated to inform the public of BWN status. June 7th 2019 – system having issues with water yield and access. Operator will be submitting a CP for the installation of a hand pump and other works. BWN signage on-site and website remain | |
Corrective Actions Remaining: Flush water system. Submit two bacteriological water samples at least 24 hours apart to confirm satisfactory water results. |
