Approximately 200 customers in the Hillcrest area are without water while crews work to repair an 8-inch main. Service is expected to be restored this afternoon. A Boil Water Advisory has been issued for those affected customers, as identified on the map below.
As a reminder, a Boil Water Advisory is simply an advisory that is issued when a water line (main) is opened whether it be for repairs or maintenance. Customers should not be concerned as this does not mean a contaminant has been identified in the water but are advised to boil water for drinking at a rolling boil for three minutes.
Update: February 6, 9:45 a.m.
A Boil Water Advisory has been expanded to customers in the Stone Creek area. Please see an updated map of the area affected below. In all, a total of 250 customers have been affected.
Update: February 7, 9:22 a.m.
The Boil Water Advisory for the Hillcrest area was lifted at 9:22 a.m. Friday, February 7.
