A boil water advisory has been issued for Sugarloaf water customers after a leak caused the system to lose positive pressure Tuesday.
According to the Shasta County Department of Public Works, the leak drained the main line and storage tank.
Repairs are being made but officials say it is necessary for Sugarloaf water customers to boil their water prior to consumption until testing indicates the water is safe to drink.
Officials said this requirement will remain in place until subsequent testing indicates the water is safe to drink.
Officials added this may take until May 3 to complete.
