Harlan’s Boil Advisory Lifted: Water Safe Again!

Officials have lifted the boil advisory for Harlan, Iowa, effective Monday.

The advisory was initiated last week after multiple water main breaks led to significant pressure loss throughout the city’s water system. These breaks caused the city's water towers to be completely drained.

City workers worked diligently to repair the system, allowing for it to be disinfected and flushed. The advisory was removed after water quality tests showed no bacteria in two consecutive samples.

Residents can now use the water safely following this resolution.
