A boil water advisory issued for the Elkview and Clendenin areas of Kanawha County earlier this week has been lifted, according to dispatchers.
The boil water advisory was issued after a power outage at a booster station which in turn drained the storage tank. West Virginia American Water crews were able to restore service to the booster station.
