Water main breaks along Manhattan Road

Following a water main break just north of County Road 550 South (Houck Covered Bridge Road), the Reeslville Water Authority issued a boil order for customers north of 550 South, including all side roads. This includes the Southern Heights area.

The boil order will remain in effect until two positive tests have been obtained from the state lab. This process usually takes two full working days, meaning it would be Wednesday, Jan. 27 at the earliest.

It is recommended that all cooking and drinking water be brought to a complete boil for five minutes before using. Customers are asked to continue boiling all cooking and drinking water until advised otherwise.

Any customers with questions regarding the drinking water problem may call the Reelsville Water Authority office at 672-8419.
