Sanepid issues water quality advisories in Trzemeszno and Sulmierzyce

Health authorities in Poland have issued separate water quality advisories for different regions. In the Trzemeszno supply zone, which includes towns such as Trzemeszno, Zieleń, and Rudki, Sanepid in Gniezno reported the presence of coliform bacteria. Residents are instructed to boil water for at least two minutes before using it for drinking, preparing meals, washing fruits and vegetables, brushing teeth, or cleaning infant bottles. Unboiled water may still be used for laundry, cleaning floors, and flushing toilets.

In a separate matter, the State District Sanitary Inspector in Krotoszyn announced that water in the Sulmierzyce and Gołków supply zones is safe for consumption. While the water is fit for drinking and domestic use, recent tests revealed high iron levels in specific areas, including Krótka, Myśliwska, and Odolanowska streets. Iron levels in some points reached up to 2000 µg/l, significantly exceeding the 200 µg/l limit. Although this does not pose a significant health threat, it may affect the water's color, taste, and clarity.
