The boil water advisory will stay in place until further notice. City officials say you might experience low water pressure or even a complete loss of water. If that happens, be sure to boil your water before using it, at least until crews have finished repairs and tested the water.
Don’t drink or cook with tap water without boiling it first, as it could contain contaminants and may not be safe. For now, stick to boiled or bottled water for drinking and preparing food.
If you have questions, you can call the City of Covington Public Works at 540-965-6321.
