Discrepancies uncovered for PWSA boil water advisory still in effect.
It includes the city’s northern neighborhoods, Millvale and Reserve Township.
Channel 11 grilled city leaders several times about this latest problem with the Pittsburgh Water and Sewer Authority.
Channel 11 told you about the water problems Monday night: bacteria-contaminated water, possibly from a tear in the cover of the Lanpher Reservoir in Shaler Township.
Now we’ve learned the DEP is doing another investigation.
City leaders and PWSA officials told us they started looking into this Friday.
But it wasn’t until Monday that the DEP learned of tears, which led to the advisory.
“I heard as a resident before I heard as a councilwoman,” Councilwoman Darlene Harris said.
The PWSA has to have two consecutive days of negative results for any bacteria in order for DEP to lift the advisory.
