DRINKING WATER BOIL ADVISORY - updated Feb. 3rd

WATER DEPARTMENT ALERT: DRINKING WATER BOIL ADVISORY

WATER DEPARTMENT UPDATE (TUES, 2/3):
The boil advisory remains in effect for Youngstown Water customers in Youngstown, Liberty and Boardman.
While the line break on Hubbard Road has been fixed as of this morning, the US EPA water testing regulations require the advisory to remain in place until test results are available. Crews spent yesterday collecting the required samples and sending them in. The results of this testing will determine the timing and locations for lifting the boil advisory, which could take up to a couple of days.

We will provide updates as soon as the initial results begin to arrive.

FOR QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS CALL:
Youngstown Water Department - (330) 742-8760
Youngstown Health Department - (330) 742-8283

Due to a major water main break on the 12-inch water main on Hubbard Road between Logan and Albert Street, the Youngstown Water Department has issued a drinking water boil advisory for Youngstown Water customers in:

• City of Youngstown
• Boardman Township
• Liberty Township

While no evidence of contamination has been found, the break may have allowed organisms that can cause illness to enter the water supply. This advisory is being issued as a precaution to keep residents informed.

Customers in Canfield and Austintown are NOT affected by this advisory.

Crews are currently working to fix the line, and additional information and timing will be provided as it becomes available.
