August 22, 2024 - Just weeks after issuing that water should only be consumed boiled, the Mesa Health Department warns that consuming, bathing and cooking with boiled water is just as dangerous as drinking it unboiled.

Governor Adamson has issued that all residents should avoid drinking non-bottled, jugged, or gallon water. He issued that the state would continue to address the misguidance as lawsuits begin getting filed with courts across the country against the Governor's Office and State Health Department.

August 20, 2024 - In response to the ongoing water crisis in Mesa, Governor Joshua Adamson declared a statewide health emergency and declared all drinking and tap water, shower water, unsafe to Mesa residents, unless the water is boiled for between 10-25 minutes.

The emergency was signed by Governor Adamson a little before 3:00 AM, and remains in effect as of now. President John McCallum is scheduled to fly into Mesa, and meet with state officials and Governor Adamson later today.

UPDATED NOTICE: Do not shower, wash your hands, cook with or consume, non-boiled water. This can lead to cancers and illness.

ALDEN - Interstate 75 is a major artery that connects most of Mesa's counties together by the use of the Northern and Southern portions of the Interstate. Furthermore, traffic has increased by 27% since last year and traffic flow continues to increase. As such, the Mesa Department Of Transportation has begun work extending the roadways, and increasing the number of lanes that each portion of I-75 has. The Alden County sections of I-75 currently only have 2 lanes for both the Northern and Southern portions. As you get closer to Ashburry, the lanes open up to three lanes both directions. Mile markers 122 - 255 include six exits towards Auckland Township, the City of Jabrea and the City of Aberdeen.
