Lambly Creek Intake

The Lambly Creek Intake is an on-stream water diversion structure located on Lambly Creek within the Lambly Creek community watershed, situated on the western shore of Okanagan Lake near the District of West Kelowna, British Columbia.

The watershed upstream of the intake covers approximately 232 square kilometres.

The intake serves as the primary water supply source for the Lakeview Irrigation District (LID), which has operated since 1951 and supplies potable water to roughly 11,000 residents through an estimated 3,300 service connections across a service area of about 930 hectares, including 226 hectares of irrigated orchard.

Because the intake is on-stream and vulnerable to runoff impacts, LID installed automated head gates and turbidity sampling instrumentation linked to a SCADA system.

If turbidity exceeds a preset threshold, the head gates close automatically, preventing turbid, nutrient-rich water from entering the downstream Rose Valley Reservoir.
