Wakefield Under Boil Water Advisory

The city of Wakefield has issued a boil water advisory for residents after a Sunday pump station error created problems with water clarity and pressure and — in some cases — a loss of service.
City Manager Robert Brown Jr. said in a press release yesterday residents should not drink the water without boiling it first . During times of low water pressure, groundwater has the potential to infiltrate the city’s old water system, which is why a precautionary boil advisory is recommended. The press release said the city also has started bacteriological testing at three locations within the water system and results are expected by Thursday. More information — including access to an emergency guide — is available from the WUPHD at 906-482-7382.
