Boil Water Advisory for Westminster

Part of Westminster’s rural and unincorporated Water Service territory is under a boil water advisory effective at 3:00 this afternoon until further notice.

Diana Dieska of the Cities Utilities Department says the city lost pressure on a 6-inch water line and as a result the boil water advisory covers customers who live on North Horseshoe Bridge Road and all roads off that road. The area involved is North of Highway 76 to the Welcome Church Community.

Until further notice customers there should boil their water one full minute vigorously before using it for drinking or cooking purposes.

Samples are being taken to determine when the advisory can be lifted.
