The City of Cedar Rapids is issuing a Precautionary Boil Advisory to customers within the boundary listed below to boil water used for personal consumption.

Affected Addresses are within the 33^rd Avenue NE are of Oakland Road NE. A rupture in a water main caused a loss of pressure, which has created a potential for bacteria contamination to occur.

• 1440 32^nd Street NE

An updated map outlining the area is available below.

We advise residents in the affected area to follow these steps for added protection against potential bacteria contamination:

1. Bring water to a boil,
2. Let it rapidly boil for at least 1 minute,
3. Allow to cool completely before consuming.

WATER IN ALL OTHER AREAS IS SAFE TO CONSUME.

Repairs to the system are underway. The area of the break is being repaired and flushed; water is back on. Chlorine levels will be monitored and two consecutive sets of bacteria samples will be collected for analysis. Next update is anticipated Saturday, January 24 at which time this order will be either lifted or extended.
