The Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality announced Monday afternoon that it cancelled the boil order for McAlester Public Works Authority in Pittsburg County.
Most of Pittsburg County is still under a do not use water order. It comes after a water pump broke and lowered the water pressure. It also potentially contaminated the water.
A water pump at the McAlester Water Treatment Plant is back in service — but a "Do Not Use' warning for city of McAlester water customers remains in effect.
Leadership of the state’s Tobacco Settlement Endowment Trust say TSET is ready to assist the city of McAlester with the next phase of its Strong Boulevard Sidewalk Project.
City of McAlester crews identified dozens of leaks after recent winter weather and continue working to resolve water pressure issues reported across the city.
