(KLZA)--A boil water notice has been issued for the city of Peru.
Auburn BPW informed the city early Tuesday morning that the transfer pump from the WT skid to the tower was failing and needed to be taken out of service. Tower level had lowered to about 17.5 feet.
The City has ordered a repair kit and is coordinating a technician to install it. This will take approximately two weeks, estimated cost is $1,900 plus labor.
Bottled water and bladders of non-potable water is available on 5th street near City Hall. For those interested in refilling small containers and Iowa Hydrant is located at 1600 O Street in Auburn between the BPW Office and Service Center and those interested in filling up bulk water call the BPW Water cell number at 402-414-0555. BPW will meet you in Auburn to fill up if large amounts of water are needed.
