A reminder to all Grand Junction residents that on Monday, the City’s water will be temporarily shut off to install a new water main.

Water Department officials say when the water service is turned back on, the City will be under a boil order.  Residents must boil their water for at least one minute before using it for drinking or cooking purposes to kill any possible contaminants.

The City will send water samples to the Iowa Department of Natural Resources to have it tested and if everything comes back clean, then the boil order will be lifted.

The project was suppose to happen on Monday, June 30th, but due to an extreme amount of rainfall, it was pushed back to Monday, July 7th.

The City thanks the public for its patience and understanding while this project is happening.

Raccoon Valley Radio will let you know when the boil order is lifted.
