(KLZA)-- A boil water notice has been issued by the City of Peru. 

It is recommended that water for consumption be boiled prior to use.  It is not required to boil water for taking a shower or doing laundry.

Peru Assistant City Clerk Caylin Winkelman, says tankers continue to haul water to Peru to keep water in the water tower for residents since the water treatment plant was flooded.  Residents of Peru are reminded to conserve as much water as possible.

Members of the Nebraska National Guard 134th Cavalry Squadron are in Peru to help make sure everyone stays away from the Missouri River flood waters on the north edge of Peru.  

Peru State College will be open on Wednesday with classes and activities resuming.
