Lakeland water safe

Thursday, October 6, 2011

It is now safe to drink the water in the Lakeland Sanitary District.

The Oneida County Health Department has now lifted the boil water notice after the district followed all protocols set forth by the DNR.

Two negative water samples have been received from the lab, showing no evidence of the total coliform bacteria being present in the municipal water supply.

They recommend running the faucet for a few minutes and flush the toilets to clear the system. They also advise clearing ice makers that may have produced ice during the notice.

The Lakeland Sanitary District is made up of portions of Minocqua, Arbor Vitae and Woodruff.
