Town of Fort Mill issues Boil Water Advisory

The South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control and The Town of Fort Mill has issued a Boil Water Advisory to the customers of the Town of Fort Mill’s drinking water system.

Customers are asked to vigorously boil their water for at least (1) minute prior to drinking or cooking. A watermain break on the Town of Fort Mill’s system has left the eastern and southeastern portion of the Town with no water for an extended period of time.

Due to the possibility of contamination of the water supply the advisory was issued as a precaution by the Town and SCDHEC officials.

Town staff will be performing bacteria sampling after flushing and will lift the advisory once negative samples have been confirmed for the affected areas.
