Boil Water Advisory for parts of Providence

by MATT HUGHES
J-E Editor
Providence Public Works has issued a notice that residents who live in Greenbrier Apartments and in any residence on between Cemetery, North Willow and Marlin Streets and the intersection of North Broadway are currently under a boil water advisory.
Crews working to locate waterlines tied into the Big Hill Water Tower constructed in 1928 accidently ruptured a 10 inch main line that feeds drinking water to that area. The advisory is a precaution until bacteriological test results come back.
This advisory will remain in effect until further notice. According to Water Plant Superintendent Mark Pharris, that could be as late as Saturday.
For more information, contact the city office at 270-667-7332.
