Boil water advisories have been issued for communities in Greenbrier, Nicholas, Raleigh and Wyoming counties.
In Greenbrier County, a main water break on Anjean Road in Rupert prompted a boil water advisory alert that affects customers on Anjean Road from Big Clear Creek Baptist Church to Kessler Bridge, according to a news release from the Rupert Water Department. The estimated time for resolving the problem is one week.
Meanwhile, in Nicholas County a loss of power to pumping stations in Fenwick resulted in a boil water advisory for the area, according to a news release from the Fenwick Mountain Public Service District. The estimated time for resolving the problem is one week.
In Raleigh County, a low chlorine problem in Arnett resulted in a boil water advisory for Peachtree Road and Drews Creek Road.
Finally, in New Richmond in Wyoming County a broken main line prompted a boil water advisory from the sewer plant to the end of the system. The estimated time for repairs is two days.
Customers are advised to bring all water to a boil for one minute and let it 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.
