BUFFALO — Customers of the Erie County Water Authority system located in the towns of Amherst, Clarence, Lancaster and areas north of Broadway in the Town of Cheektowaga as well as the villages of Depew, Lancaster and Williamsville no longer need to boil their tap water.
A boil water advisory was put into effect on Thursday morning following an Amherst water main break late Wednesday night.
Water samples collected from the affected areas were analyzed and determined to be negative for bacteria indicating that the water was not contaminated during the recent water main break. Customers may resume using their water as they normally would.
Anyone with questions is asked to call the customer service department of the Erie County Water Authority at 716-849-8444 or the Erie County Department of Health at 716-961-6800.
