Boil Orders Continue, Expected to Lift Soon

March 3rd, 2021 by

Last week’s boil orders for southeast Monticello and other communities in Drew County, supplied by the Monticello water department, are still in effect.

The precautionary boil order was issued because of low pressure in the system, as a safety measure, and multiple “good reports“ have been returned from state agencies.

Operators are still waiting on final clearance from Little Rock to resume normal operation, and canceled the boil order.
