Water boil advisory lifted for North Waterfront Drive

COLUMBIA, MO (July 15, 2010) - Two consecutive days of laboratory tests confirm that the water for customers living on North Waterfront Drive and Driftwood Court is safe to drink. The two samples from the repaired water line that Columbia Water & Light collected required an incubation period of 24 hours each before they could be analyzed. Both sets of samples showed no bacterial contamination. Customers will be notified by either a phone call or hangtags on their door that the water is safe to drink.
