Atlanta water officials lift boil advisory
The boil water advisory issued over the weekend for parts of East Atlanta has been lifted.
The city of Atlanta had issued the advisory after a Georgia Power outage resulted in a temporary loss of pressure in the drinking water system, authorities said.
The advisory was lifted around 8 a.m. Monday after tests showed no contamination of the system.
The system was restored to normal operations within 30 minutes, according to the department. However, in an abundance of caution, a boil-water advisory was issued for these areas:
- Flat Shoals to Haas Ave to the east, Glenwood Ave to the south, Moreland to the west, and McPherson to the north.
- Holtzclaw Road from Stovall to the east, Kirkwood to the north, Chester to the west, and Memorial to the south.
- Hosea Williams End Ave, that area could be bounded by 4th Ave to the east, Cottage Grove to the south, Lakeview to the west, and Gordon Road to the north.
