Sandy residents advised to boil tap water, use bottled water

Sandy Public Works employees are on scene investigating the water disruption that has left some homes dry this morning.
UPDATE: This latest version of this story notifies readers that a boil notice has been put in effect for customers of the Sandy municipal water system.
The city of Sandy has posted a "boil notice" due to a breakdown in the city water system that occurred sometime over night.
Areas west of Langensand Road and east of Meinig avenue primarily south of Highway 26 experienced no or very low water pressure.
When water pressure in the distribution system (the pipes in the street that serve your home or business) drops below 20 psi groundwater can be drawn back into the piping system.
This is precautionary.
It will take about 24 – 48 hours to get test results back from the lab.
We will let you know as soon as we are clear.
We apologize for the inconvenience."
