ROBERTS Following confirmation from accredited laboratory testing, the City of Roberts is happy to inform that the June 19 Do Not Drink/Do Not Boil Water Advisory has been formally withdrawn as of Saturday.
Following a brief reduction of water pressure brought on by a power outage and a backup generator fault, the advice was issued as a precaution. The quality of the water was never affected. To guarantee residents’ continuous safety, the advise was issued in compliance with public health norms due to the loss of pressure.
RELATED | Leaders in the city of Roberts issue an urgent warning: avoid drinking or boiling tap water.
The municipal water supply is safe for drinking, cooking, and bathing, according to recent test results. All state and federal safety regulations have been met by the improved water quality.
