Boil Water Advisory for residents between Highway 421 and Stormbranch Road.
GLOVERVILLE, S.C. (WRDW/WAGT) — Officials have declared a boil water advisory for the residents between Highway 421 and Stormbranch Road.
The advisory also includes residents on Old Stormbranch Road, Old Cherokee Road, Willingham Drive, Westside Drive and Diamond Street.
Any residents who experienced an interruption in their water service or low water pressure on Tuesday need to vigorously boil their water for at least one full minute prior to drinking or cooking until further notice, according to officials.
While there has been no confirmed contamination of the system, because of the interruption in service due to an unforeseen water main break, the potential for contamination exists.
Also, any ice made from water that has not been boiled should not be used for drinking purposes, too.
What’s more, the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control (SCDHEC) is currently working with the water system to handle the problem.
Those with any questions or concerns can contact the water system at 803- 593-2053.
