(Pottawattamie County, IA) A boil advisory is in effect for residents in rural Pottawattamie County due to a fire at a pumping station.
Pottawattamie County agencies say those living rural areas of the county need to conserve water and boil any used for consumption or food preparation after a fire at a pumping station. “Due to a fire incident disabling their pumping operations, water service may be interrupted later this evening until pumping capability can be restored,” an update from Pottawattamie County Emergency Management states.
