Boil Water Order is still in effect

Peru – Peru Water Superintendent Greg Timmons said this morning that three day Boil Water Order for the Reservoir Rd, Barney Downs  and the Quaker Springs Development is in effect. Timmons will be taking water samples to the Clinton County Health Department today and he anticipates the Order being lifted tomorrow. The Boil Water Order commenced at 9 AM Wednesday.

Tuesday’s work at the water plant was completed in two to three hours and there was only a small drop in water pressure.  The Health Department’s Boil Water Order was precautionary, issued in case the work took longer than anticipated.  Workers installed several values and tees to reroute water and allow the water plant improvement project to proceed.

State Senator Betty Little’s states her priorities in her usual straightforward manner

“In terms of substance, I expect the new legislative session to be
 very similar to the past two with a heavy emphasis on strengthening the 
economy and improving our business climate with the goal of job creation.
Because revenues remain weak and the full financial impact of Sandy is 
still unknown, I anticipate another fiscally austere state budget.

“In terms of style, I hope to see a continuation of the bipartisan
and constructive dialogue between both houses of the Legislature and the
 governor.  We have a lot of complex issues to deal with and, given our 
political and geographic diversity, differences can only be resolved if
 lawmakers are willing to accommodate other points of view.

“My focus remains on mandate relief, in particular giving schools and 
local governments more flexibility in managing through their own financial
 challenges.  Medicaid and pension reform mandate relief will help on the 
local level, in addition to some other smaller measures also already 
enacted, but clearly more needs to be done.”
