Good morning to all of the Byers Water customers, and everyone else. Recently we sent out a notice to all of our customers about a new billing system. In that flier there was a web link to get account set up unfortunately when I copied and pasted it into what you guys got the address was a little messed up. It should read:

https://new.nexbillpay.net/byerswsdco/billpay/signin

As you might know that the water is all been turned back on to the north side of the tracks and the water tests out all good. So good night.

We have a water main break at 177 W Bijou. Valves are shut off at Bijou and Fetzer and Bijou and Main. Also at Cedet and Sherman. So Bijou is shut down along with everything between N Sherman and N Fetzer. This includes the wrecking yard and anybody east of Fetzer. I do not have an ETA on when it’ll be fixed as fast as possible.

DRINKING WATER PROBLEM UPDATE
Byers WSD

The Byers WSD is committed to ensuring the safety and quality of the drinking water we provide to our community. As part of the follow-up testing that occurred following the line break and Boil Water Advisory one of the three samples collected tested positive for coliform bacteria but negative for E. coli bacteria. The sample that was positive for total coliform was collected in the northern part of our distribution system.

In response, the District immediately flushed this area again and conducted repeat sampling at multiple locations int the area, as required by state and federal drinking water standards. These follow-up samples have been collected and delivered to the lab for analysis on Friday 8/22/25.

It is important to emphasize that:

• Total coliform bacteria are not harmful themselves, but they are used as an indicator that the water system may be vulnerable to potential contamination.
The presence of total coliforms signals that follow-up testing is needed to confirm water safety before the Boil Water Advisory can be lifted.
The Byers WSD works closely with the CDPHE to ensure compliance with all water safety regulations. Our highest priority is protecting public health and maintaining confidence in the water supply. We anticipate to have the follow-up sample results in the afternoon of 8/23/25 and will provide additional updates at that time.

We will continue to keep the public informed and take all necessary measures to maintain safe drinking water. Customers with questions may contact our office at [email protected] or 720-392-4342, or PO Box 301 Byers CO 80103.

Just a reminder due to yesterday‘s line break we are in fact on a boil order until further. Notice notices will be handed out today.

We experienced a main break after it was struck during Global’s backfilling operations at the intersection of Third and Sherman. Unfortunately, we had to shut down the entire town’s water supply because we lacked the means to isolate the affected area for repairs. Consequently, a boil order will be in effect once the water is restored, hopefully within a couple of hours. If you require assistance, please call 720-392-4342. We apologize for the inconvenience and will work to restore service as soon as possible. They were conducting the final stage of work on this system, and backfilling was underway. I am unsure how the break occurred, as the dirt was almost completely filled in. I have not yet excavated the area to inspect the damage, but the resulting water flow was substantial. We had essentially a river.
