Waterloo Water Main Problems

A Boil Order will go into effect in Waterloo in western Douglas County when repairs are made to a water main break discovered last week under the levee near Madison and Seventh Streets.

According to the community's facebook page, repairs are to begin at 8 a.m. Monday and could take up to 12 hours.

The village of Waterloo says the advisory will be lifted when two water samples taken 24 hours apart are bacteria-free.

Hydrants will be flushed and the first sample taken when the repair is complete.

The advisory and water service disruption will affect customers in both the Village of Waterloo and the West Shores subdivision.
