WATER

Piers Island water sources from the Greater Victoria Water District by way of North Saanich.  

Water undergoes rechlorination on Piers Island.  Water Operators are volunteers who check and monitor the residual chlorine amounts and adjust accordingly to keep water safe for residents.  

Water is distributed to residents through a 3 inch main which circles the island. The island has 21 standpipes & 1 wet hydrant for firefighting and a new 50,000 gallon water tower providing storage and pressure for the system.

For more details on how water system and the work that goes into maintaining the quality of our drinking water, please review our Piers Island Water System Operations Playbook.

Watering Restrictions are in effect from May 1st to Sept 30th.
