Boil Order Update
The recent water main break has been repaired and water pressure has been restored. The boil order remains in effect for the following areas: Bronk Estates, Bronk Farm, Eagle Chase, Enclave, Golden Meadow Estates, Kensington Club, King’s Crossing, Marybrook, Pheasant Chase, Prairie Creek, Quail Run, The Ponds, The Seasons, and Wilding Pointe.
Water samples have been submitted to the laboratory and testing is underway. The testing verifies compliance with IEPA standards. This process typically takes 24 hours and the boil order will remain in effect until the laboratory testing is completed.
We will share an update tomorrow through the Village’s social media channels and the Village website, plainfieldil.gov, once we hear from the laboratory. Thank you for your continued patience. Boil Order Information.
