Until laboratory tests are completed to confirm the water has not been contaminated, the boil water notice remains in effect.
A boil water notice means tap water should not be used for drinking, cooking or ice-making until tests verify the water is safe.
How does boiling water make it safe to drink?
Boiling does not remove them from the water, but it does kill them, preventing them from causing illness.
Tap water and antibacterial soap for hand washing is safe for basic hygiene, but if you are washing your hands to prepare food, use bottled or boiled water.
Ice already in your freezer when the boil water notice is issued is safe, but icemakers should be turned off until the notice is lifted.
It is safe to wash clothes in tap water.
The boil water notice will remain in effect until test samples show the water is safe to drink.
How will I know when the boil water notice is lifted and I can safely use tap water again?
After the boil water advisory is lifted, will my water heater be contaminated?

Veolia and its subsidiary Birdz have selected Orange Business Services to digitise its water services.
The two will digitise their water metering by connecting over 3 million water meters using a LoRa network over the next ten years.
The goal to read more than 70% of the meters remotely by 2027 follows a suceessful 12-month pilot in Toulese.
“Birdz has chosen Orange Business Services to help it make a strategic shift from a technology requiring deployment of a radio network infrastructure to a solution that is open, interoperable and reversible and also a solution which meets the needs of our customers,” according to a statement.
The network currently covers 30,000 municipalities and 95% of the population of Metropolitan France.
The smart water meters project will help reduce consumer bills by giving them access to real-time water usage data which they can use to identify potentials to enhance water efficiency.
For Veolia and Birdz, the project will help improve water management to ensure sustainable management of water resources and to enhance revenue collection and reduce non-revenue water through quick detection of water leaks and fraud.
The LoRa network will allow Birdz to focus on their core business and develop new services.
Birdz will also rely on Live Objects, the object and data management platform of Orange Business Services, to collect the mass of information from the meters.
Frédéric Van Heems, CEO of Veolia Water France, stated: “This project with Orange Business Services illustrates Veolia’s goal to digitalize our businesses and services.

Falsey said those should be expected for a long time.

The data shows that water utilities in the Garden State have racked up at least 226 contamination violations of the Safe Drinking Water Act since Flint became synonymous with tainted tap water and put other water systems under a spotlight.
The state’s largest city, Newark, acknowledged last month that the treatment program it was deploying to stop lead from leaching into drinking water in the city was "no longer effective," according to NJ.com.
But the health-based violations elsewhere in the state mostly swirl around excessive levels of bacteria or, ironically, inordinate amounts of disinfectants meant to cleanse the water of biological contaminants.
“Most of the violations that you see are coliform testing and disinfection byproducts," said Anthony Matarazzo, director of water quality for New Jersey American Water, the state’s largest private provider.
Explore the map below to see which water utilities were cited for delivering tainted water.
Three months later the system was considered "compliant" again with the arsenic rule.
The Safe Drinking Water Act is a federal law passed in 1974 that sets standards on drinking water supplies in America.
EPA data shows there have been nearly 34,000 contamination violations of the SDWA — impacting the water delivered to 1 in 8 Americans — across the country since April 2014, when the city of Flint started drawing water from the Flint River.
Another 3,800 major monitoring violations of the SDWA were rolled up in New Jersey since Flint, meaning that these utilities were failing to properly test for dangerous manmade and naturally occurring chemicals or to document those procedures.

Yes, ContinueNo Carrboro, N.C. — A leak in front of a water utility company in Carrboro Monday morning was forcing large amounts of water onto the road in front of it.
Video showed water gushing from the Orange Water and Sewer Authority (OWASA) plant onto Jones Ferry Road.
Police have blocked off the road in front of the plant, which is located at 400 Jones Ferry Road.
According to Ed Kerwin, the executive director of OWASA, the central water main in front of the facility burst and the plant is losing water at a rapid rate.
Kerwin is urging Chapel Hill and Carrboro residents to use water on an essential basis until the problem is corrected.
Officials originally stated the water was safe to drink but later issued a boil advisory for those residents.

Slab Road in Kingsland is covered with water from the swollen Llano River in Kingsland on Tuesday October 9, 2018.
[JAY JANNER/AMERICAN-STATESMAN] The Kingsland Water Supply Corp. in Llano County issued notice Saturday alerting customers within its service area that a boil water notice is still in effect.
“Our tanks are slowly filling, and we ask that all customers only use water for sanitary needs,” the company said in a notice posted on its website.
“Outdoor water use including pressure washing, washing automobiles and lawn watering are discouraged in order to help us conserve usage so that we can fully pressurize our system to normal conditions.” Once the water supply’s system is pressurized, the company said, it can begin the bacteriological sampling required to lift the boil water notice.
The system’s pumping capacity is at about 70 percent and the utility expects these conditions to remain until Wednesday, the company said.
The boil water notice has been in effect since Tuesday, Oct. 16.

WILMINGTON, NC — Homes and businesses in Wilmington and other parts of New Hanover County may lose drinking water because a major utility is critically low on fuel.
They could lose drinking water if the agency doesn’t get needed fuel within 48 hours.
"We are in critical need of fuel to keep our water treatment plants running," the utility wrote.
It said it is exploring "every avenue" to find a potential fuel source.
If it’s unable to, water service for public health and safety — including firefighting and other vital services — will halt.
Flood waters have made it impossible for authorities to access the area.
Customers are asked to begin making contingency plans, including filling up bathtubs and water jugs.
Further updates will provided as soon as possible.
We are not asking you to leave your homes.
