“We apologize for any inconvenience this will create, but we have no other means of conducting this work without shutting the water down,” Escanaba Water Superintendent Jeff Lampi said. “If we are forced to shut off the water, we will hand deliver “Red” boil advisory notices to everyone affected. Once the water is restored, a boil advisory will be in effect until our lab results prove the water is safe for consumption. If all goes as planned, a “green” door hanger notification for normal water usage should be hand delivered by the end of the day on March 22nd.”
