City waiting on test results to lift boil order Posted By: Ben Butler August 13, 2009 @ 4:50 am Today's Local News Tweet Share Email The city of Washington is waiting on test results before it lifts a boil order on the north side of town. Last week a water main burst causing water to flow into the sanitary sewer which backed up into at least half a dozen homes. City Administrator Dave Plymann says insurance companies for the city, a contractor working near the water main, and homeowners will determine who’s at fault, and who has to pay the claim.
