UPDATE: Boil Water On Third Street LIFTED
Update as of June 24, 8 a.m.: This Boil Water Notice has been lifted. No contamination was detected.
============
Water system personnel are responding a leak in a water line on Third Street. A Boil Water Notice is now in effect for customers on Third Street between Davis Avenue and Kerens Avenue. The approximate area of the Boil Water Notice is marked in red on the map below.
The earliest that laboratory testing can be completed and the notice lifted is Saturday, June 24.
Boil Water Notices are issued out of an abundance of caution because positive pressure has been lost and the possibility of contamination exists, not because contamination has been detected. The presence or absence of contamination must be confirmed by an independent lab through a testing process that requires at least 24 hours after delivery of a sample. Samples cannot be taken until the leak has been repaired and service has been restored. Samples can only be submitted during business hours.

Notification will be sent out when the Boil Water Notice is lifted. We regret any inconvenience this may have caused and appreciate your patience during this time.
