Oak Hill area of Sergeant Bluff under drinking water advisory
The City of Sergeant Bluff Water Supply recommends residents in the Oak Hill subdivision either boil their water or use an alternative source. This advisory was issued on September 21, 2026, due to a problem in the distribution system that caused a loss of pressure and potential bacterial contamination. Affected residents should boil water for one minute before use or use bottled water for drinking, cooking, making ice, and brushing teeth until further notice. Update (KTIV, 22.09.2026, 13:30): The advisory followed a water main break. The system has been repaired, and the advisory will remain in effect until bacterial sample results are available. Update (KCAU 9 News, 22.09.2026, 19:10): Residents should boil water for one minute before use.
