One Lake Station water main has been repaired, but another has broken. New Chicago Town Manager Sue Pelfrey tells Lakeshore Public Media that a break in the 3800 block of Liverpool Road was repaired by Monday evening, after about nine hours of work. She says there is no boil advisory, since enough water pressure was maintained.

However, another water main break was reported Tuesday morning in the area of 36th Avenue. Pelfrey says it's a smaller dead-end line in a wooded area, and it doesn't appear any customers have been impacted.

New Chicago provides water service to portions of Lake Station.
