Albemarle County Service Authority lifts boil water notice

ALBEMARLE COUNTY, Va. (WVIR) - The Albemarle County Service Authority announced Sunday, January 28 that the boil water notice for the affected areas of Albemarle County has been lifted.

Albemarle County says that due to a water main break along Route 29, low pressures occurred in the water system.

The county says that water service has been fully restored and subsequent water quality testing shows the water quality to be safe.

The following measures are strongly encouraged at this time:

• Empty and clean automatic ice makers and water chillers
• Service connections with a water softener/cartridge filter should be run through a regeneration cycle or other procedures recommended by the manufacturer
