Water service has returned to residents of the City of Yoncalla, though a “Boil Water” order will remain in place through sometime Monday.

City Administrator Jennifer Bragg told News Radio 93-9 FM and 1240 KQEN that service returned starting around 11:00 p.m. Friday night. Bragg said crews began purging lines at that time. While all repairs have been made, testing continues in the distribution system. Bragg said the community is on the “right path” though more work remains.

Bragg said the “Boil Water” aspect applies only to the consumption of water. Other uses like showers and laundry can resume as normal.
