CHICAGO (CBS) -- People in Dixmoor plagued by persistent water problems can finally clean up.

Cook County is opening free shower facilities at three separate forest preserves: Camp Sullivan, Camp Shabbona Woods, and Camp Bullfrog Lake.

Meantime, village leaders now blame a stuck valve for at least some of the water pressure problems that started last week.

Dixmoor is still providing bottled water to thousands of residents. Schools and businesses are closed, and a boil order is still in effect.
