Boil water advisory canceled in Tucker

Aug 22, 2013

A boil water advisory was canceled in the Tucker area on Thursday, the DeKalb County Watershed Division said.

A temporary fluctuation in water system pressure Wednesday could have posed a health hazard, which led to the advisory, the county said. In an abundance of caution, the county urged citizens to boil all water prior to use for drinking, cooking or preparing baby food.

DeKalb technicians working with the Georgia Environmental Protection Division collected and tested water samples and canceled the boil water advisory when the review was completed.
