The Canadian Loonie
|
Heads Up, Loonie Down. Be Prepared.
The Canadian Dollar hit a new all-time low in the last 13 years. News has come out predicting another decline of the Canadian loonie, possibly reaching another all-time low of 59 cents by the end of 2016.
With the dollar going south, it makes sense to plan ahead for the inevitable rise in prices that will follow. Stocking up on inventory at today's prices is just one of the ways that savvy business people are mitigating the effect this will have on their bottom line.
PLEASE NOTE: Van Isle Water customers can stay up-to-date on any price changes that may affect our sector by accessing our B2B Website where all prices are up-to-the-minute accurate.

RECIPE OF THE MONTH
Chicken Quarters Braised with Jalapenos, Lime & Garlic.
This easy chicken dish combines the robust flavour of garlic with the brightness of line and just a hint of heat from jalapeno pepper and chipotle powder. Tender and tasty, these braised quarters don't require hours of fussing in the kitchen.

The Pineapple Express

Get Prepared with Rainwater Harvesting
Rainwater harvesting systems are becoming increasingly popular due to their efficiency and ability to provide a sustainable and personal water supply for potable and non-potable uses.
Collect rainwater today to beat the drought tomorrow.
FUN FACT: In January 2016, Victoria had 5.09 inches of rain, Nanaimo had 7.99 inches and Courtenay had 7.68 inches.
Just 1 (one) inch of rain from the last Pineapple Express over a 1,000 sq.ft roof could capture 500 US Gallons. If that was collected through a WISY 100 rainwater filter (at 95% efficiency), you would have 475 US Gallons filtered down to 280 microns AND 450 US Gallons at 90% efficiency. THAT'S ONLY ONE INCH OF RAIN!

Comox Valley Water Treatment
|
Water Treatment Options
Boil water notices related to turbidity have occurred for communities within the Comox Valley Water System.
These events plus recent water quality monitoring in the lake have led the Vancouver Island Health Authority to make a final decision that both filtering and disinfection must be provided as part of the municipal water treatment process.
On January 18th, the CVRD hosted an introductory public event on a presentation of the study scope, stakeholder input process, and technical options for water treatment which was then be followed by a facilitated discussion. All interested parties were welcomed to attend.
The draft and final water treatment options study, due by end of June 2016, aims to develop a long-term strategy to provide reliable water that meets current healthy standards to the community while protecting the ecological, economic and cultural value of the lake and valley.
