Boil Water Order Lifted in Village of Glasford

Glasford, Ill. (December 29, 2022) — Illinois American Water has lifted the boil water order for its customers in the Village of Glasford. Testing confirms the water meets all quality standards and is safe to drink.

A boil water order was issued in accordance with Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulations. Anytime water pressure drops below 20 pounds per square inch in any part of a community’s distribution system, a boil water order must be issued as a precaution to protect customers.
