City of Plattsmouth

September 3 update: The City of Plattsmouth Water Emergency declared on March 20, 2019, is terminated! City Administrator Erv Portis announced that the water treatment plant passed the final tests and inspections and began producing water. Test results validate water quality is safe and good.

"As the system transitions from the Cass County Rural Water District #1, some turbidity in parts of the system may be expected. This is a result of water flowing in a different direction with increased velocity in some mainline pipes than for the past five months. Turbidity should decrease in the next several days."

While water quality is good, various components of the plant are operating without redundancy. One of the five wells is currently operational. Two of four pumps are turning. It may be several months before a backup generator can be installed.

Anyone wishing to water lawns and gardens is encouraged to do so late at night or very early in the mornig when other usage is low and absorption is better.

"The City of Plattsmouth thanks Cass County Rural Water District #1, its Board of Directors, and the General Manager for being there when we needed you. Most important, Plattsmouth thanks its users and customers for their patience during this very difficult time."

Red Cross: Donors of all blood types, races and ethnicities needed

Plattsmouth - Wednesday 10/9/2019

Red Cross urges blood donations after Hurricane Dorian impacts blood supply

LINCOLN, Neb. (Sept. 23, 2019) — The American Red Cross urges people of all races and ethnicities to give blood or platelets to help increase the diversity of the blood supply.

The vast majority of blood types fall into one of the major blood groups. However, for patients with rare blood types or those who receive regular blood transfusions, blood must be matched closely – beyond the primary A, B, O and AB blood types – to reduce the risk of developing complications from transfusion therapy. The best match may be someone of the same racial or ethnic group.

Eight-year-old AJ Torres requires blood transfusions to treat complications from sickle cell disease, the most common genetic disease in the U.S. The disease is most common among people of African descent or Latino descent, like AJ, and can sometimes cause small blood vessels to become blocked. Diverse donors are important to ensuring AJ has the blood products he needs to regain his health.

“Within minutes of receiving a blood transfusion, I watch his strength be restored, pain vanish and energy return. Soon he transforms back to himself – a rambunctious little boy,” said his mom, Caira Torres. “If an 8-year-old can withstand a needle, so can you.”

Donors of all blood types, as well as all races and ethnicities, are needed to meet the needs of an increasingly diverse patient population. Appointments can be made by downloading the free Red Cross Blood Donor App, visiting RedCrossBlood.org, calling 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767) or enabling the Blood Donor Skill on any Alexa Echo device.

As a thank-you, those who come to give blood or platelets during the month of October will automatically be entered for a chance to win one of five $500 gift cards redeemable at hundreds of merchants, courtesy of Tango Card. Terms apply; see rcblood.org/game.
