Water restrictions have been lifted.

The Comox Valley Regional District is advising residents that water restrictions throughout the region have been removed. Increased rainfall in September has replenished the reservoir allowing the system to be in good shape for the coming months.

Working closely with BC Hydro, the CVRD has removed restrictions for those connected to the Comox Valley water system. This applies to residents in Comox, Courtenay, and the Arden, Comox Valley, England Road, Marsden/Camco, and Greaves Crescent local service areas.

Water restrictions for those living in Royston and tied into the Cumberland water system are lifted completely from Oct. 1 to April 30, unless future circumstances determine otherwise. There are no watering restriction in place for the Black Creek-Oyster Bay water system. Water restrictions in this area are put in place when the CVRD considers it necessary (i.e. extreme drought situations).

The CVRD would like to thank the region’s water users for adhering to the restrictions.
