Yay! What a quick turn around!

The City of Chubbuck’s water system has been disinfected and flushed and water samples were taken at multiple locations throughout the city. The testing shows that the water is safe to consume. DEQ has given us permission to lift the boil advisory. The Boil Water Advisory that was issued on 8/7/2025 is no longer in effect. Thank you to everyone for your patience and understanding.

Update: The City of Chubbuck’s water system has been disinfected and flushed and water samples were taken at multiple locations throughout the city. The testing shows that the water is safe to consume. DEQ has given us permission to lift the boil advisory. The Boil Water Advisory that was issued on 8/7/2025 is no longer in effect. Thank you to everyone for your patience and understanding.

The City of Chubbuck has issued a boil water advisory until further notice for all homes served by the city’s water system after a critical main water line break that led to a significant loss of water pressure. We recognize that this advisory is an inconvenience but the health and safety of our water and community is our top priority!

August is Emergency Preparedness Month! Are you prepared?

Encourage families, neighbors, and caregivers to talk about emergency plans before a disaster happens.

Talking about preparedness now can make all the difference later. Here’s how to get started:
🗣 Ask – “If something happened today, what would we do?”
📋 Plan – Discuss evacuation routes, emergency contacts, and medical needs.
📦 Prepare – Build or update an emergency supply kit together.

Whether it’s over coffee, at a family gathering, or during a community meeting, take time this month to connect and plan.
