Following a water line break this morning, the South Point Water Department is advising residents on the following streets to vigorously boil, for at least one minute, any water used for drinking (including water used to make ice), cooking or oral hygiene.

The advisory is for the following area:

Fourth Street West starting at Giovanni’s Pizza going west to and including Sharon Court.

The South Point Water Department has no evidence at this time that the water system is contaminated. The possibility does exist however and is issuing this advisory as a precaution.

If no further notice is given after Thursday, then the samples are normal and the water is safe.
