BMID - 100 Year Anniversary!
The Black Mountain Irrigation District proudly celebrated their 100 year anniversary in 2020. BMID's Letters Patent was issued by the Lieutenant Governor of British Columbia on November 3, 1920, and since then BMID has been providing water service to the Black Mountain community. BMID has published a book marking this event, relaying the 100 year history of the District. "Black Mountain Gold" is available at the office for $25.00. Costs have been kept low due to donations from our generous sponsors (Suppliers, Consultants, Contractors etc). We appreciate their contributions to our Community!

CHANGE IN WATER SUPPLY NOTIFICATION
Black Mountain Irrigation District
Notice for Immediate Release
The Black Mountain Irrigation District (BMID) is advising all customers in our service area of a temporary change in water supply. BMID is connecting a new transmission main to their existing Distribution system, which requires a shut down of the Mission Creek water supply. During the construction period, water will be drawn from BMID groundwater wells and groundwater from Rutland Waterworks District.
Because BMID is relying on alternate water sources, please ensure you are as efficient as possible with your water use during this time.
This is not a Water Quality Advisory. All water quality will continue to meet the Provincial Water Treatment Objectives and the requirements of Interior Health. Customers may notice a more mineralized, slightly harder water during this time.
The change of water supply is scheduled to start November 4, 2024, for a duration of approximately four weeks. Once the supply from Mission Creek is restored, another public notification will be issued.
If you wish to be added to our direct email notification list, please send your email address to info@bmid.ca .
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your cooperation and patience during this time. If you have any questions, please contact BMID at (250) 765-5169. Thank you.
