Boil water advisory lifted
The boil water advisory issued for Saint Mark Road and adjoining streets has been lifted. It is safe for customers to use their water as normal.
Repairs for a damaged fire hydrant are complete and water service is back on for customers living in the Saint Mark Road area.
Wednesday
Greer CPW reported customers should boil their water for one minute before drinking or cooking. Customers are asked to do this out of an abundance of caution because bacteria may have grown in the waterlines, reported CPW.
Approximately 550 customers have been impacted for the boil water advisory.
Per DHEC rules, water samples must remain in the incubator for 24 hours. CPW will know at approximately 6:37 p.m. on Thanksgiving Day whether the boil water advisory can be lifted.
