“Bring all the water to a rolling boil for at least three minutes, and let it cool before using, or use bottled water,” a statement from the Loudon Utilities Board said. “Boiled or bottled water should be used for drinking, making ice, brushing teeth, washing dishes, and food preparation until further notice.”
The notice runs through 4:30 p.m. on Oct. 23, the board said.
