Drinking water advisory, care home restriction in Wadena

A precautionary drinking water advisory is in effect in Wadena.

According to the town’s website, the advisory is due to a well pump failure. That has led to a restriction of water being treated and elevated turbidity.

Residents are asked to boil water for at least a minute before use.

Meanwhile, the Pleasant View Care Home in Wadena remains closed to visitors for the time being.
