Sewage Leak Closes Departure Bay Beach

Could Reopen By Friday

A faulty manhole caused sewage to leak at Departure Bay Beach on Wednesday afternoon. The leak was spotted at noon and was fixed by about 2:30 pm.

City and Regional District staff will be testing the ocean water to determine when safe contamination levels are reached before opening the beach again to swimmers.

In the meantime, people are advised to stay out of the water until further notice.
