Boil Water Advisory Lifted Soon | Roanoke News

A boil water advisory hit parts of Roanoke County—Roselawn, Homewood, and Smokey Ridge—after a pump station communication failure caused dangerous pressure drops. Triggered by equipment failure at the Smokey Ridge storage tank, officials issued the alert Friday to protect public health. Residents must boil water for one minute before drinking, cooking, or making ice—or use bottled water. The pump station is fixed, but disinfection and refilling are underway. Water safety can’t be declared until two clear test results come back in 48 hours. Stay tuned for the all-clear. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
