The notice
A boil water notice (BWN) is being issued to the Knudson Cove Marina (PWSID 121026) on Wednesday, August 14, 2024. Drinking Water Program staff were notified that the onsite filtration system does not meet the giardia-cyst removal requirements for the roof catchment water collection system. In order to rescind the boil water notice, the Department requires confirmation that the correct filters/housings have been installed, confirmation the water system has been flushed, & three clean total coliform sample results submitted from the distribution system.
