SPRING TOWNSHIP, Pa. – A boil water advisory issued Wednesday for parts of Berks County has been lifted.
Pennsylvania American Water said in a release Sunday roughly 6,500 customers in Spring Township, Sinking Spring, Wyomissing, Lower Heidelberg Township and South Hiedelberg Township no longer have to boil their water before use.
The state Department of Environmental Protection authorized the lifting of the advisory after acceptable test results were obtained from samples collected on Friday and Saturday.
The advisory had been issued on October 10 after a water main break off Mountain Home Road in Sinking Spring which caused a loss of positive water pressure.
