The continuation of the hot, dry weather has raised the fire hazard to “Extreme” prompting local fire authorities to place a complete open fire ban throughout the District of Squamish.

Due to Electronic Breakdown

In the late afternoon at approximately 4:00 p.m. multiple areas of Squamish experienced low water pressure for approximately one hour. An electronic failure occurred giving a water reservoir a false reading of being full. The District of Squamish utility crews were immediately able to diagnose the problem and quickly fixed the situation. Once fixed it took some time for the reservoir to refill and restore the system.
