Its service area includes; the community of Westbank south to Gellatly Road South; east to Angus Road and the boundary of Westbank First Nation Indian
Reserve No.9; north to Copper Ridge Drive in the community of Smith Creek; and west to the Gates Road area of the community of Glenrosa.
The intent of a source assessment is to identify and evaluate the hazards to drinking water quality and quantity, characterize the risks and propose risk management strategies. Water source assessments as referenced in Part 3, section 18 of the Drinking Water Protection Act is the first step in Health Canada's multi barrier approach to safe drinking water. The Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Water, Land and Air Protection, provide guidance in the draft Comprehensive Drinking Water Source to Tap Assessment Guideline released in March 2005.
