which crews are working to complete as quickly as possible. The estimated time
for restoration is 8:00 PM. 

  Once service is restored, affected
customers should boil their water before consumption until further notice.
Boiling kills bacteria and other organisms that may be present in the water.
Customers are asked to bring water used for drinking, cooking, bathing, and
brushing teeth to a full boil for a minimum of one minute, then cool before
use. 

 

West Virginia American
Water also recommends the following steps:


 Throw
     away beverages and ice cubes if made with tap water;
 Keep
     boiled water in the refrigerator for drinking; 
 Provide
     pets with boiled water after cooling;
 Do
     not use home filtering devices in place of boiling or using bottled water;
     most home water filters will not provide adequate protection from
     microorganisms; 
 Use
     only boiled water to treat minor injuries.
