Wilmar Water Update – Boil Order Continues
January 5th, 2023 by Joe Burgess
Since the single-digit temperatures, early last week, the city of Wilmar has been battling a water shortage, along with a still-in-effect boil order.
We spoke with the city water office, and as of the middle of this week, they are hoping to have the 190,000 gallon city water tank back to its regular full status by Friday.
As we understand it, no large water leaks were found, but several smaller ones were located, usually on residential property.
Residents are still being asked to conserve water, where possible. An example would be not washing cars or other large used activities.
The “overnight outages“ were discontinued several nights ago.
