The auto-generated messages started going out to residents shortly
after 5 a.m. The message stated that water pressure overnight
had fallen below 20 pounds per square inch, which requires the company to
notify customers that their water should not be used for
consumption.
It is reported pressure fell after an overnight water main break.
The message said that water was suitable for washing and bathing
but that any water used for consumption should be boiled for five
minutes before being used.
The message stated that residents would be notified when the boil
order has been lifted.
LCHS is closed today, but District 27 is open and bottled water
will be provided for students.
