Boil Advisory lifted for Pisgah

The Iowa Department of Natural Resources reported late Sunday night a boil advisory has been lifted for the Harrison County city of Pisgah. The boil advisory had been issued following loss of pressure in the entire system Thursday evening. An electrical contact on one of the pumps tripped out and prevented the wells from turning on.

The electrical problem has been repaired and pressure has been restored, but the drop that occurred in water pressure could have possibly allowed bacteria to enter the drinking water. The water has been sampled and determined to be safe.
