Conspicuous by their Absence

What's the point of an annual water report, available online at Greater Vernon Water, if there are no reservoir level graphs?

Well the point is probably that the reservoir levels aren't as low as they want us to believe.
Or else they'd be in the newspaper.

Oh where oh where have the water level charts gone?  Oh where oh where can they be?

Here's what GVW reports annually to Interior Health re 2014 operations:

Updates to the water system and capital works;

Updates to the water monitoring plan;

Updates to the emergency response plan;

Updates to cross-connection control program;

Provice Environmental operators certification program updates;

Annual consumption data;

Microbiological rest results;

Continuous chlorine residuals;

Comments on source, treatment, distribution system events;

Records of communication with customers;

Operational activities;

Water sustainability initiatives.

"GVW has made this report available online to ensure transparency and accountability to its customers" said Renee Clark water quality manager.

It's frankly encouraging that the website continues to state:  "GVW's primary goal is to ensure the economical supply and distribution of a sufficient quantity and quality of water in the interests of both agricultural and non-agricultural users in the Greater Vernon Community," though "economical supply" seems to be an oxymoron when discussing North Okanagan water rates, and their disparity with those just 35 miles south of us in Kelowna.

"But it's still not complete without dated water level graphs," says Kia. 

The graphs that were always printed in the newspaper.

Ahem...again.
