2022-01-05 With the highly contagious omicron variant spreading fast around our province, the District of Clearwater is taking temporary precautionary measures to reduce potential exposure points in the effort to support service continuation to the public. The overall goal is to ensure business continuity and to minimize disruption to service delivery to the public. This is a temporary measure in line with the DOC COVID Safety Plan and will be reviewed every 14 days.
What does this mean for you?
Starting January 5, 2022, ICBC and Driver License Service are conducted by appointment only. You can make an appointment online, by calling our office or by emailing icbc@docbc.ca. When entering the building, please sanitize your hands and wear a mask. If you feel any symptoms of Covid, do not come into the office. Please give us a call to cancel your appointment.
