Boil water advisory in effect for Endicott, Endwell, and West Corners until further notice
Unmute
(WBNG) The Village of Endicott Water Department has issued a boil water advisory until further notice for the entire Endicott Water District, which includes the Village, West Endicott and Endwell.
The advisory could last for three to four days, according to a news release.
According to officials, around 10 p.m. on Thursday, Endicott s water system lost pressure due to a main line break between West Wendell Street and Glendale Drive. When the distribution pipes and mains lose pressure, the department says it increases the chance of harmful microbes and untreated water.
UPDATE: The boil water advisory was lifted Sunday, May 2, 2021.
A water main break near Glendale Park in Endicott has prompted a boil water advisory for residents that could last up to four days.
Village of Endicott Water Department released a statement Friday saying crews were working to repair the main line and at least two rounds of water samples will be taken 24 hours apart to determine when it is safe to drink. Lost pressure increases the chance untreated water and harmful microbes could enter the water system. It is likely that you will need to boil water for the next 3 or 4 days, officials said in the statement, until the problem is fixed.
