An advisory for Comox Harbour has been scaled back following a sewage leak discovered on May 26, which originally prompted concerns about potential impacts to swimmers, paddlers, and others using the harbour as warmer weather approaches. The advisory was issued by local health authorities after the leak was detected, raising alarms about possible contamination in the water. Officials have since reassessed the situation and reduced the warning level, though they continue to advise caution for those engaging in water activities. The scaled-back advisory reflects improved conditions, but monitoring remains in place to ensure public safety. Residents and visitors are urged to stay informed through official updates as the harbour returns to normal operations.
