BETHEL PARK, Pa. — The Pennsylvania American Water Company (PAWC) has issued a 48-hour boil water advisory for 55 communities in Allegheny and Washington counties.
Residents of impacted communities should bring all water to a boil, let it boil for one minute, and let it cool before using, or use bottled water.
