Nearly 25K NJ Residents Warned to Boil Water A boil water advisory was lifted Saturday for about 25,000 people in the New Jersey towns of Carteret and Port Reading.
The towns were ordered to boil their water on Friday morning due to a large water main break.
Middlesex Water Co. said the advisory was lifted Saturday and residents no longer needed to boil water.

A boil water advisory in Carteret has been lifted.
It comes after a water main broke along Longfellow Street early Friday morning.

About 25,000 customers were affected, including the entire town of Carteret and in the Port Reading section.
Earlier reports had said that the advisory was expected to continue into Sunday, but as of noon Saturday the advisory has been lifted.

The town of Carteret is under a boil water advisory after a water main broke along Longfellow Street.
Over 25,000 customers are under a boil water advisory until Sunday morning because of that break.
Water quality tests found that the water quality for customers in Carteret and Port Reading East of the Jersey Turnpike may have been affected by the breach.
Residents should boil their tap water before using it.
The water main break occurred Friday on Longfellow between Carteret Avenue and Pulaski Avenue.
Crews worked throughout the day and into the night, all while the boil water advisories were out.
Middlesex Water said customers should "boil their water for the following: drinking, cooking or baking, making ice cubes, taking medication, brushing teeth, washing food, mixing baby formula or food, mixing juices or drinks, feeding pets and all other consumption.” Residents do not, however, have to boil water for washing dishes or showering.
Crews were still out Saturday morning working to fix the issue, and the water company says the boil advisory remains in place pending water tests.
Middlesex Water says it is standard procedure to address a potential water quality issue.
Middlesex Water says to let water boil for one minute, take it off the stove and let it cool down before consuming.

A water main break in Middlesex County has prompted a boil water advisory for thousands of customers.
The boil water advisory affects 25,000 customers.
Middlesex Water Company officials say that advisory applies to all residents in Carteret and in Port Reading section of town that is east of the New Jersey Turnpike.
Residents are advised to boil water before consuming and to keep bottles of boiled water in the refrigerator.
Uncooked food or ice made with tap water that was not boiled should be thrown away.
Officials say that the advisory may be in place for 48 hours.
“The water level was literally halfway up to my tires and it was getting higher so I had to move my car,” Carteret resident Aissa Oliva said.
The Oliva family says that they lost water for about four hours Friday.
Luckily the family had gallons of bottle water already so they have been able to cook with that.
