The Papio NRD received water quality lab test results today that indicate no E. coli in Washington County Rural Water Systems #1 and #2 (WCRW), so the water is safe to consume. This is also the case for our wholesale customers of Ft. Calhoun and Lakeland Estates Water Company.
Due to an E. coli-positive result from the City of Blair water system, the Papio NRD isolated all WCRW customers from the Blair water supply Wednesday night and started providing water from Metropolitan Utilities District.
WCRW will continue testing and monitoring the situation to continue providing safe water to all of our customers.
