| Details: | SUMMARY: Temporary pressure loss affecting approximately 10 blocks of SE Bay Blvd. DETAILS: On the morning of July 5th complete pressure loss occurred over approximately 10 blocks of SE Bay Blvd (for up to several hours). Drinking Water Services was notified by Lincoln County health officials on the afternoon of July 5th after service pressure was restored. It was determined that pressure loss was a result of valve configuration, not line breaks. Limited public notice was issued (no boil water notice). Sampling conducted on July 10th in the affected area demonstrated coliform absence. Detectable chlorine residual was also verified throughout the affected area after service pressure was returned. ACTION NEEDED: No additional action is needed at this time. | ||
