Officials with Greenfield Municipal Utilities, Friday (Today), said the water system in the community and surrounding customers of GMU is now safe to drink. Here is the statement issued this afternoon:

“Customers of Greenfield Municipal Utilities were notified on 7/17/2018 of a problem
with our drinking water and were advised of a bottled water advisory followed by a boil advisory on 7/18/2018. We are pleased to report that the problem has been corrected and that it is no longer necessary to boil water for human consumption. We apologize for any inconvenience and thank you for your patience.

Greenfield Municipal Utilities has flushed out their storage and distribution system.
Results of the samples sent to the lab for analysis on Thursday, July 19, 2018 confirm
that we are within the recordable DNR limits.

This document officially lifts the boil order that began on Wednesday, June 18, 2018.
