West Linn, OR--Sunday, October 17, 2021
The City of West Linn has received water quality testing results from water samples taken following the water main break near Trillium Drive and Old River Drive that occurred on Friday. As of Sunday morning the boil water advisory has been lifted for the Robinwood Water Pressure Zone and water quality tests have confirmed the water is safe for consumption. Please note that most West Linn residents were not affected by the original water quality advisory and are not affected by this notice.
West Linn residents in the Robinwood Water Pressure Zone were notified on Friday October 15, 2021 of a potential problem with their drinking water and were advised to boil drinking water until further notice. We are pleased to report that the problem has been corrected and that it is no longer necessary to boil water or take steps to disinfect your water. The original cause of the the issue was a water main break caused by a large vehicle hitting and damaging a fire hydrant near Trillum Drive and Old River Drive.
We apologize for any inconvenience and thank you for your patience. Water is safe to drink and may be used as normal.
