1,300 Draper residents under boil order due to potential water contamination

DRAPER, Utah — State officials have issued a boil order for more than 1,000 residents of Draper after the water supply was possibly contaminated.

However, the possibly tainted water is not from the city itself, but from a private company.

Draper City announced Thursday afternoon that approximately 1,300 "WaterPro" customers.

The company said there was a "cross-connection" between the culinary water system and secondary water system, which allowed untreated water to infiltrate the drinking water.

The Utah Division of Drinking Water issued a boil order for the impacted area "As a precaution," the city said. WaterPro is working to test the water in the system for contaminants.

The impacted area is seen in the map below. You can view the full map in more detail HERE .
