Upland utility tests underway; town expects boil order to be lifted if samples clear
Summary
Town Manager Jonathan Perez reported that the Utility Superintendent submitted the first set of water samples after a boil order; a second test is scheduled and, if both meet safety standards, the boil order is expected to be lifted by Thursday pending final confirmation.
Town Manager Jonathan Perez reported during the Sept. 17 meeting that the Utility Superintendent submitted the first set of post-boil-order water samples today and that a second required test is scheduled for the following day. Perez said that, based on initial assessments, officials anticipate the test results will meet safety standards and that the boil-water advisory could be lifted by Thursday pending final confirmation of both test results.
The town issued the boil order the previous day as a precaution following an interruption in the water system; the meeting record notes that utility staff are collecting samples and following required testing protocols. The town will lift the advisory only after confirmation from test results, Perez said in the report.
Next steps: the town will publish test outcomes and notify residents if the advisory is lifted. The council did not take separate formal action on the boil order during the meeting.
