Multiple Areas in PA Under Boil Water Advisory

The boil water advisory that was issued for parts of upper West Philadelphia has been lifted after all samples tested by the water department showed no evidence of harmful bacteria. The Philadelphia Water Department says about 18,000 customers were impacted by the boil water advisory due to a pumping serving station failure that caused a loss of water pressure in the area. The neighborhoods that were impacted include Wynnefield Heights, Wynnefield, Overbrook Farms, Green Hill Farms, Overbrook, Overbrook Park, Morris Park, and parts of Carrol Park, Haddington, West Parkside, and West Fairmount Park.
