Residents of the Game Creek neighborhood have been warned not to drink water from the tap after E.coli and coliform bacteria were found in the area’s water supply. Households in the Squaw Creek Water District received notice Friday, June 28, that a pipe servicing the area had been tested for E.coli on June 25 and results came back positive for the bacteria on June 26.
