City issues letter to residents on status of North Side water tank |
July 23, 2014 |
Because of ongoing problems with entry of mice
and other "vermin" into the North Side water
tank, the City is issuing a notice that
residents who get their water from the affected
tank may want to consider boiling their water or
using bottled water. Even though samples tested from the tank have consistently shown adequate levels of chlorination and no coliform bacteria, it is recognized that some organisms, such as viruses, are not readily detectable by laboratory methods. Therefore, to be completely protected from any such organism, boiling the water or using bottled water should be considered. Following is a copy of the letter issued by the City: |
