Beckley Water Co. has issued a precautionary boil water advisory effective immediately for Pershing Street, Randolph Street and Harlan Court in Beckley. This notice is being issued due to a broken main line.

Customers are advised to bring all water to a full rolling boil, let it boil for one minute and let cool before using, or use bottled water. Boiled or bottled water should be used for drinking, making ice, brushing teeth, washing dishes, bathing, and food preparation until further notice. Boiling kills bacteria and other organisms in the water.
