Customers of the Edgecombe Water & Sewer District are being told to boil their water because of the possibility of total coliform bacteria.
The bacteria was detected in water samples collected in the Highway 97/Lawrence area.
As a precaution, residents should boil all water used for human consumption, or use bottled water until further tests are complete.
Vigorous boiling for one minute should kill any disease-causing organisms that may be present in the water.
