At Bourke Creek Improvement District, our goal is to provide safe, clean, sparkling water to all of our residents!
We are a small water system that serves a community made up of 35 homes, and 3 parcels of land not yet developed. The system has a surface water source (Bourke Creek).
A treatment system designed and built by Nelson firm, Aqua Diversities, was installed in November of 2014. The system is an “Aqua 50 Water Treatment Plant”. The system is encased in a secure container on our easement and consists of sand filtration, one-micron filters and a UV filtration with chlorine added to the water
before it is stored in our water tank and delivered by gravity to our users. It requires electricity to operate the pumps.
