A boil order is now in effect for the entire area of Langleyville.

The Taylorville Water Department issued the order Saturday afternoon at around 3 o’clock due to system repairs. Officials say the boil order applies to the entire community, including Burton’s Tap. Residents are being urged to boil all water used for drinking and cooking. Water should be brought to a rolling boil for at least five minutes before use.

The boil order will remain in place until bacteriological testing can be completed to ensure the water is safe. Residents will be notified once the boil order has been lifted. Anyone with questions can contact the Taylorville Water Department.
