Rock Island city leaders say a boil order has been issued for 25th Street east to the Moline border between 7th and 18th avenues.
They say the area may have experienced an unexpected drop in system pressure due to the recent windstorm and resulting power outages.
“As a result, we are unable to guarantee the distribution system maintained the minimum pressure of 20 psi in the area listed,” the city said in a statement.
All water used for drinking and cooking should be boiled until further notice.
