Advisory

Water Outage Update - February 12 7:30PM

Rend Lake Conservancy Water District has advised that the repairs to their supply line are completed, and they have begun to flow water back to the impacted systems. 

At this time, the following water systems have instituted system-wide Boil Water Orders:

- City of Du Quoin
- Village of Dowell
- Village of Tamaroa

Greenwood Creek Nation water systems are still operating on reserve storage and do not anticipate having to issue boil orders.

As systems work on replenishing their supplies or continue to utilize reserves, customers could still experience low water pressure. Also, customers should continue to conserve water throughout the evening and overnight hours.

Customers under a boil order should boil their water for at least 5 minutes and allow it to cool before consumption.
