The City of Kalamazoo in cooperation with Kamminga and Roodvoets Inc., is in the process of constructing new water infrastructure. This work is scheduled for Tuesday, September 24, 2024 starting at approximately 8:00 AM, at which point the City will shut off water service. The work will result in a temporary loss of pressure and consequently, a precautionary boil water advisory is being issued, starting at that time, in cooperation with the Kalamazoo County Health and Community Services Department for all water intended for drinking or ingestion or any consumptive uses within the affected area, including:
This advisory is precautionary only; there have not been any confirmed tests showing bacteria present in the water main at the location of the infrastructure repair. Initial sampling results will be available within 24 hours of its collection and the final set within 48 hours. It is expected that the advisory will be lifted within 72 hours (September 27). City of Kalamazoo employees may be tasked with obtaining samples directly from customers. Assistance with obtaining samples would be greatly appreciated.
Municipal water customers in the affected area may use bottled water for consumptive purposes or boil their tap water for 2 minutes prior to use for drinking or other ingestion. No special precautionary measures are necessary for water used for personal hygiene.
