Westminster area boil water advisory

A contractor accidentally cut a main line, requiring a boil water advisory for customers along a number of roads in Westminster’s rural service territory.  According to the utilities department, the following customers should vigorously boil their drinking water a full two minutes on the Philip Lear Road, the Chauga Road, Tabor Road, and Dr. John’s Road, south of Philip Lear.  The utility department is required to take two samples 24 hours apart before the advisory is lifted.  The next update is anticipated tomorrow afternoon.
