Eagle Cliff Water System
The Eagle Cliff water system services about 100 users in the Eagle Cliff neighbourhood.
Water for the Eagle Cliff system is supplied by a deep groundwater well and an open surface reservoir. It is treated by flow-paced injection of sodium hypochlorite into the water supply main with limited contact time and is UV disinfected. Turbidity is recorded and monitored regularly. The water is tested for chlorine residuals every day and samples are sent to Vancouver Coastal Health once a week.

Bowen Island Municipality is currently dealing with leaks at some properties in Municipal water systems. We make every effort to contact the property owners, however in many cases we only have mailing addresses.
Please provide your contact information so that we can contact you by phone or e-mail if we discover high water usage on your water meter.
