Incline Village Orders Boil-Water Advisory After Pressure Loss, With Test Results Due Today

Lab results due today will determine when officials lift the notice.

Overview

  • IVGID issued the advisory after a water main leak caused a loss of pressure, creating a high potential for fecal or other pathogens to enter the distribution system.
  • Affected areas include Lariat Way, Lariat Circle, 553–681 Tyner Way, Doeskin Court, Rockrose Court, Alden Way, and Dale Drive.
  • Residents in the listed zones should bring tap water to a rolling boil for three minutes or use bottled water for drinking, cooking, making ice, brushing teeth, and washing dishes.
  • Crews are repairing the system with intermittent shutoffs reported, and officials expect to lift the advisory if laboratory testing shows no bacterial contamination.
  • Officials describe the notice as precautionary with no confirmed detection to date, and they will notify residents immediately when water is cleared as safe.
