DETROIT (Michigan News Source) – The remaining boil water advisories set in place by the Great Lakes Water Authority (GLWA) following last weekend’s water main break has been lifted.
Officials said if the water pressure drops in the regional system, another precautionary advisory may need to be re-issued. Only one business in Greenwood remains under the advisory.
The original advisory was issued on August 13 after a break was discovered in a 120-inch water transmission main that distributes drinking water.
However, Lapeer County Emergency Management said that it doesn’t mean the water system is back to normal operations. Repairs are still estimated to be completed by September 3rd. Lapeer County officials are encouraging residents to limit their use of water to essential uses only to preserve the current system, and to avoid causing any problems.
