CFPUA has lifted a precautionary boil water advisory for customers in and around the Love Grove community Wednesday, February 16.
Crews completed emergency repairs to a water main in the area Tuesday, February 15, and water service has since been returned to normal operation.
ORIGINAL MESSAGE:
CFPUA customers in and near the Love Grove community will experience periods of low or no water pressure, effective immediately Tuesday, February 15, while crews complete emergency repairs to a water main.
Approximately 120 customers will be impacted at the following addresses: the entire Love Grove community (Railroad Street to Creekfront Drive); the 800 and 900 blocks of Fanning Street; the 800 block of Anderson Street; the 800 and 900 blocks of North 10th Street; the 1000 block of Hall Street; and the 900 and 1000 blocks of North 11th Street.
Once water service is restored, customers in the affected area will be under a precautionary boil water advisory.
Periods of low or no pressure in the water distribution system increase the potential for back siphonage and introduction of bacteria into the water system.
When under a boil water advisory, customers are asked to boil their water for one minute, then allow it to cool prior to consumption. They also may use another water source such as bottled water.
Consumption includes drinking, brushing teeth, making ice, food preparation, fruit and vegetable washing, pet consumption, and the preparation of baby formula. Customers do NOT need to boil water prior to using it for showering or bathing.
Before a boil water advisory is lifted, CFPUA lab staff test the water to ensure it is safe to drink.
