Details: SUMMARY: Limited Boil Water Notice DETAILS: Ken called to report that on 11/12/07 a break on a 6" watermain occurred during a road construction project. This section of the system was isolated, and the break was repaired within a few hours. Since there was a brief period of time of no pressure in the watermain, the 30 service connections on this line were issued a Boil Water Advisory. This advisory was lifted on 11/13 after samples taken from the affected area tested negative for coliform bacteria. ACTION NEEDED: None. Medford Water Commission will meet with contractor to discuss field operations and valve operating policy.
