Public Works will be spraying for mosquitoes early Wednesday morning - 08/26/2026

Effective immediately the boil notice is lifted.  Per PeopleService, both rounds of 15 samples came back from the lab all clear.

PeopleService has completed the required sampling for the boil notice advisory. Results are expected to be in later this evening. The boil notice will be lifted as soon as the lab provides results stating negative for E. coli and Coliform. Another notice will go out as soon as the information is received.

The occurrence of a loss of pressure in the distribution center over the weekend is a perfect example of why this survey MUST be completed by every resident who is on the Valley water system, every 5 years.  We need you to help keep our water systems safe!!!

Cross-Connection Survey

The State and EPA requires every home to evaluate for cross connection/backflow possibilities. This is done by completing the cross-connection survey that is being sent out by City Hall.

Cross connection contamination can happen when the water mains pressure is less than the connection and the flow can be reversed, introducing a contaminant to the public water system. Examples are sprinkler systems, boilers, pools etc. This survey allows a review of all connections to better protect our public water against back flow. 

Please complete this survey as soon as possible to help protect your water source!

DRINKING WATER WARNING

City of Valley water system lost pressure in the distribution system

BOIL YOUR WATER FOR THREE MINUTES BEFORE USING

This was caused by failure in the controls. These conditions may pose an imminent and substantial health endangerment to persons served by the system.

What should I do?

• DO NOT DRINK THE WATER WITHOUT BOILING IT FIRST. Bring all water to a rolling boil for at least (3) three minutes, and let it cool before using, or use bottled water. Boiled or bottled water should be used for drinking, making ice, brushing teeth, washing dishes, and food preparation until further notice. Boiling kills bacteria and other organisms in the water.

ALL STORED WATER, DRINK OR ICE MADE RECENTLY FROM THIS SUPPLY SHALL BE DISCARDED.

• Inadequately treated water may contain disease-causing organisms. These organisms Include bacteria, viruses, and parasites which can cause symptoms such as diarrhea, cramps, nausea, headaches, or other symptoms. They may pose a special health risk for Infants, young children, some of the elderly and people with severely compromised immune systems.

• The symptoms above are not caused only by organisms in drinking water. If you experience any of these symptoms and they persist, you may want to seek medical advice. People at Increased risk should seek advice about drinking water from their health care providers.

We will inform you when you no longer need to boil your water. For more information, please contact Mike Adair 402-677-3781.

Please share this information with all the other people who drink this water, especially those who may not have received this notice directly (for example, people in apartments, nursing homes, schools, and businesses). You can do this by posting this notice in a public place or distributing copies by Hand or mail.

During the transition to the new control for the water plant upgrade there was a programming issue. Due to this failure, the water system fell below 20 psi which requires a BOIL WATER ADVISORY. This is precautionary until sampling can be done to assure safe drinking water. The State requires two rounds of samples 24 hour apart to show negative for bacteria, this is what the boil water ADVISORY is for. PeopleService are taking samples tomorrow and Monday. The results take 24 hours to analyze so Tuesday will be the earliest for the lift of the advisory.

PeopleService has been notified there has been a drop in pressure and a loss in water throughout Valley at this time. They are actively investigating.  Another post will go out as more information is gathered. We appreciate your patience and understanding!
