CATEGORIES:
Relief, Response & Restrictions
Water Supply & Quality
AFFECTED AREAS:
Pottawattamie County, IA
Avoca, IA

Start Date: 5/15/2025 - End Date: 5/24/2025
Avoca was under a boil order, and residents were urged to restrict their water use as drought has left regional water wells low. A local grocery store was expecting another shipment of water soon in an effort to keep up with residents’ demand for bottled water. The boil water order was expected to last about ten days until water can be pumped to Avoca from Council Bluffs. KMTV 3 News Now (Omaha, Neb.), May 15, 2025
