Conditions are beginning to improve for the Kemptville Creek. The Rideau Valley Conservation Authority (RVCA) sent out a press release last week downgrading its low water status from moderate to minor severity. Â
The RVCA says the Kemptville Creek is sitting at 67 per cent normal rainfall over the past 90 days. The rest of the Rideau River watershed has returned to normal.
Winterization of the Rideau Canal will begin next week and run into November. Water conservation is still recommended for all residents who live within the Rideau River watershed.
The RVCA will continue to monitor conditions.
