Wolcottville boil water advisory lifted
(WANE) – A boil water advisory put into place in Wolcottville after a fire fight drained the town’s water supply has been lifted.
The town normally pumps 80,000 to 100,000 gallons of water a day.
On the day of the fire, it pumped over 220,000 gallons.
Days later, a boil water advisory was issued as a safety precaution.
"It didn’t necessarily ran out of water," Utilities Superintendent Darin Garrett said.
Garrett said when the pressure in the water system gets that low, the town issues a boil water notice as a precaution.
His team is sending two water samples to the Indiana Department of Environmental Management so they can give the all clear.
That rang true.
On Wednesday, the town lifted the boil water advisory.
For Twin Six Restaurant, the advisory meant a small loss of business.
