It’s a small victory for the town that was flooded all summer.
Big Lake Village’s water supply is now safe for residents.
The boil order issued from the Department of Natural Resources was lifted yesterday, after recent water samples showed the water was safe to drink.
The boil order was issued October 7th, after the area evacuated since June started to drain of flood waters. Water services were shut down in June which created a high potential for bacteria to develop in the public water system. The system was flushed and is now safe.
