Lillooet Lake Estates is
under a Boil Water Advisory
Why should I disinfect my
drinking water?
Drinking water is
disinfected to kill disease-causing
micro-organisms (bacteria, viruses and
parasites) which may be in it.
Many different diseases
are spread by drinking water contaminated by
micro-organisms, including Campylobacter,
cholera, amoebic dysentery, beaver fever (Giardia)
and Cryptosporidia. These organisms usually
get into drinking water supplies when source
waters (i.e.. lakes, streams) or community
water supply pipes or storage reservoirs are
contaminated by animal wastes or human
sewage.
In general, surface waters
such as streams and lakes are more likely to
contain disease-causing organisms than
groundwater. Deep wells are safer than
shallow wells. In fact, shallow dug wells
are often as contaminated as lakes or
streams.
Coliform bacteria were
present in drinking water samples;
therefore, treatment is recommended for
water used for:
-
Boil water (full boil
minimum 2 minutes).
-
Add two drops of
household bleach per 1 litre warm water
(double dose for cold water), shake, and
allow to stand for 30 minutes before
using.
-
Add chlorine or iodine
tablets and follow manufacturer's
instructions.
