local amendments or associated materials are on file with the Town Clerk and are available for public

5/1/26 - IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR DRINKING WATER

Below is a notice that we are required to publish for compliance with CDPHE regulations.  A copy of this notice will be sent with the March/April Water and Sewer Bills.

 IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR DRINKING WATER
Town of Lake City
Failed to Provide Adequate Treatment
Este informe contiene información muy importante sobre su agua potable. Tradúzcalo o hable con alguien que lo entienda bien.
Our water system recently violated a drinking water requirement. As our customers you have a right to know what happened, what you should do, and what we are doing to correct this situation.
Due to a system upset beginning on April 26, 2026, we began pumping one of our sources greater than our permitted rate. The pumping rate puts our source at risk of surface water infiltration, to which we are required to filter and disinfect the water to surface water standards. As a result, a boil water advisory was issued. Our failure to filter our source during this upset is a violation of the drinking water regulations. This notice is intended to resolve this violation and to notify our customers of the situation.
On April 30, 2026, following system corrections and lowered pumping rate, the boil water advisory was rescinded.
What does this mean? What should I do?
○ There is nothing you need to do at this time. The Boil Water Advisory has been rescinded, and the situation has been resolved. If a situation arises where the water is no longer safe to drink, you will be notified within 24 hours.
○ To resolve our violation, we are required to provide the required health effects language contained in a Boil Water Advisory and specific health effects language related to improperly treated surface water, that includes:
○ While no contamination has been detected, the loss of pressure in the distribution system may have allowed disease-causing organisms to enter the water system. These organisms include bacteria, viruses, and parasites, which can cause symptoms such as nausea, cramps, diarrhea, and associated headaches. The symptoms above are not caused only by organisms in drinking water. If you experience any of these symptoms and they persist, you may want to seek medical advice.
○ People with severely compromised immune systems, infants, and some elderly may be at increased risk. These people should seek advice about drinking water from their health care providers. General guidelines on ways to lessen the risk of infection by bacteria and other disease-causing organisms are available from EPA’s Safe Drinking Water Hotline at 1-800-426-4791.
○ Inadequately treated water may contain disease-causing organisms. These organisms include bacteria, viruses, and parasites which can cause symptoms such as nausea, cramps, diarrhea, and associated headaches. These symptoms are not only caused only by organisms in drinking water, but also by other factors. If you experience any of these symptoms and they persist, you may want to consult your doctor.
What is being done?
○ After the system upset, we ordered parts and installed them to repair impacted waterworks equipment. We flushed our system and took samples throughout the service area and at our source. No evidence of contamination was found in these samples. If you are or become ill, you are encouraged to talk to your doctor.
For more information, please contact Ethan Wuest at ETHANWUEST@TOWNOFLAKECITY.CO or 970-964-7684, or 230 N BLUFF ST, LAKE CITY, 81235.
*Please share this information with all the other people who drink this water, especially those who may not have received this notice directly (for example, people in apartments, nursing homes, schools, and businesses). You can do this by posting this notice in a public place or distributing copies by hand or mail.*
This notice is being sent to you by: Town of Lake City - CO0127467
