HERTFORD COUNTY, Va. (WAVY) — A boil water advisory issued on October 18 for some parts of Hertford County has been lifted.

Samples collected from multiple locations within the Hertford County Rural Water System have been tested by a state lab and were found to be free of bacteria.

If you use water from this system, you’re asked to still manage water usage and consumption and report any leaks or problems to Hertford County Rural Water.
