Potentially harmful bacteria could be present in the water supply. If these bacteria are present, they could make you sick, and are a particular concern for people with weakened immune systems. We will perform tests for bacterial to ensure the water is safe in the following days.

When tests show no bacteria and you no longer need to boil your water, we will lift the boil water advisory. We anticipate resolving the problem within the next 3 days.
Customers should bring water to a rolling boil for 1 full minute, allow the water to cool before using, and store the cooled water in a clean container with a cover. Customers should use boiled water that has cooled or bottled water for:
Drinking
