Details from the source

The Uptown Loop of the Buckland public water system (PWSID 340125) was placed on a boil water notice on 10/8/2026 due to loss of pressure within the distribution system while leak repairs are completed, the rest of the system remains unaffected. The boil water notice will remain in effect until repairs are completed, pressure restored, and an adequate number of clean total coliform samples have been collected and reported.

What to do now that it is lifted

  1. Run cold taps for a few minutes (start with the highest faucet in the house) to flush household pipes.
  2. Throw away ice and drinks made with unboiled water during the advisory; run the ice maker through three cycles.
  3. Replace refrigerator and point-of-use filter cartridges as the manufacturer recommends.

Always follow the instructions of the issuer — the water system or health authority. This page is an independent summary, not an official notice.
