Beckley Water Company has issued a precautionary boil water advisory effective immediately for South Kanawha Street from Johnstown Road to F Street in Beckley, including all side streets, as well as Maplewood Lane, Thorton Street and Russell Street, due to a broken main line.
Customers are advised to bring all water to a full rolling boil, let it boil for one minute and let cool before using, or use bottled water.
Boiled or bottled water should be used for drinking, making ice, brushing teeth, washing dishes, bathing, and food preparation until further notice.
Boiling kills bacteria and other organisms in the water.
