Boil-water advisory lifted in Monongahela area
A boil-water advisory has been lifted in Monongahela and Carroll Township four days after a major pipeline rupture interrupted service to about 1,300 homes and businesses.
Pennsylvania American Water announced early Friday that tests of the water Wednesday and Thursday showed the supply met standards set by the state Department of Environmental Protection, company spokesman Gary Lobaugh said.
Route 88 at Railroad Street was closed to traffic for several hours Monday after the line failure buckled those roads. The break in the line resulted in a drop in water pressure and the company’s inability to refill a storage tank in Carroll.
