[KRIS CRAIG/THE PROVIDENCE JOURNAL] PROVIDENCE — After more than a week, some residents in Narragansett and South Kingstown no longer have to boil their tap water before drinking it.
The state health department announced Saturday that it was lifting an advisory to boil water for four water systems — Suez Water, Narragansett-Point Judith, South Kingstown-South Shore and South-Kingstown-Middlebridge — after finding no contamination of E. coli or coliform bacteria for three consecutive days.
Before using their water again, customers should clean and sanitize refrigerators with water dispensers or ice makers, replace water-treatment filter cartridges, and run faucets for 10 minutes if they weren’t used during the advisory.
A boil-water advisory remains in place for customers of the Narragansett-North End water system.
The health department said that water samples from that system collected on Wednesday and Saturday contained coliform bacteria.
Residents affected by the advisory may fill bottles of water at West Kingston Park, at 3840 Kingstown Road, West Kingston, from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Elderly residents and people with disabilities should contact (401) 789-1091 for assistance.
Boiling contaminated water for one minute renders it safe to drink, after it cools down.
The health department is investigating reports of gastrointestinal illness, which would be associated with E. coli infection.

WHITEHALL — A boil-water advisory issued in the village Friday has been lifted, according to the village’s Department of Public Works on Sunday.
It was not clear why the notice had been issued in the first place.
This is the third boil-water notice in Whitehall since June.

LAKE WACCAMAW, NC (WWAY) – The water consumers of the Lake Waccamaw Water System in Columbus County are experiencing periods of low pressure and outages in the distribution system due to a broken water line.
The advisory is in effect from 2506 Canal Cove Rd.
and continues to the end of Waccamaw Shores.
Town officials say this does not include the Wooded Acres Subdivision.
This advisory will continue until further notice.
Periods of low or no pressure in the distribution system increases the potential for back siphoning and introduction of bacteria into the water system.
Therefore, the Division of Water Resources advised that when water is restored consumers boil all water used for human consumption (including drinking, making ice, brushing teeth, washing dishes and food preparation) or use bottled water.
Vigorous boiling for one minute should kill any disease-causing organisms that may be present in the water.
This office is strongly urging the water consumers to conserve water whenever possible.
This advisory remains in effect until further written notification is issued.

About 900 water customers on Pittsburgh’s North Side are under a flush-and-boil advisory Thursday.
The Pittsburgh Water and Sewer Authority announced the precautionary measure for a portion of the Spring Hill-City View neighborhood.
A searchable map of the area is available online, and an automated phone message has notified the affected customers, PWSA said.
The advisory stems from a loss of water pressure early Thursday in Spring Hill, according to the authority.
Repair work on a leaky valve and water line on Buente Street undercut the pressure about 5 a.m. Service was fully restored by 8 a.m. PWSA said it’s testing to ensure adequate disinfectant levels and to verify the water is safe to drink — a process that can take about two days.
Anyone in the area who had low or no water pressure Thursday should follow the advisory until further notice, according to PWSA.
Affected customers should flush their taps for at least one minute and then boil their tap water vigorously — again, for at least one minute — before drinking, making ice, cooking, washing dishes, brushing teeth or hydrating pets, the authority said.
