Officials in Dayton, Ohio, say it seems the safety of the city’s water wasn’t compromised during a major water main break last week that led to a boil-water advisory affecting some 100,000 people.
Dayton’s water department director, Michael Powell, tells the Dayton Daily News that the advisory was precautionary.
He says subsequent testing indicates the water quality wasn’t harmed or unsafe.
Crews located a water-line leak last Thursday under the Great Miami River, but high water levels hindered repair work and efforts to determine what caused the break.
Powell says the city will analyze what happened to identify whether other parts of the water system might be at risk of similar problems and to work to prevent such issues.

DAYTON, Ohio — A water line broke in one of Ohio’s largest cities Thursday, forcing some 100,000 customers to boil their water, closing schools and disrupting diners’ Valentine’s Day plans.
There was no word on what caused the break.
As many as 400,000 people initially lost water altogether before authorities located the leak.
Distribution sites for bottled water were set up around the city.
Nine of the 16 public school districts in Montgomery County, which encompasses Dayton, closed for the day because of the water system outages and boil advisories.
State environmental officials said they were providing oversight and help with technical issues to the city and making sure state drinking water regulations were followed.
County officials estimated Thursday afternoon that 15,000 to 20,000 customers were under a warning to boil their water before using it.
Dayton officials estimated 75,000 people were under the advisory.
Dayton’s water quality laboratory was collecting water quality samples for testing and expected the first results to be available in 24-48 hours, city spokeswoman Toni Bankson said.
Archer’s Tavern in suburban Kettering notified customers it was outside the boil alert boundaries, but added: "Just in case you are still nervous about the drinking water, our beer, wine and spirits are 100 percent safe to drink without concern of contamination … Be Safe-Drink Beer!"

According to the Beaufort-Jasper Water and Sewer Authority (BJWSA), the advisory applies to the Levy area, including South Okatie Highway from Delta Estates Road to Telfair Plantation.
BJWSA says failure on their 12’’ water main prompted the advisory.
Residents in the affected area are urged to boil water used for drinking/consumption, cooking and bathing as a precaution until further notice.
Water should be boiled for at least one minute after reaching a rolling boil.
Bottled water may be used as an alternative.
Additional information on disinfecting water is available from the EPA online here.
The notice will remain in effect until the water system is back to normal.
Residents can find the latest updates on the BJWSA website or by calling 843-987-9200.
