Georgia College and State University closed the campus and cancelled classes Thursday due to the water boil advisory.

According to a news release from its Office of Communications, faculty members will contact students to make alternative arrangements for class.

The advisory went into effect Wednesday after a water main break caused parts of the water system to drop to “dangeroulsy low levels.”

Customers with the city of Milledgeville are advised to boil all water prior to use for drinking, cooking or preparing good. It should be boiled for at least one minute, a news release states, after reaching a rolling boil.

Citizens should boil the water until further notice.

This is the third time the city has been faced with a water main break since April.
