Boil Order Lifted in Olney

Posted: Updated:

The boil order for Olney has been lifted. City Administrator Danny Parker reports that test results have come back and the water is safe to drink.

Thursday an electric company was repairing a power pole and accidentally drilled into the main water line that night. The city stopped all water from running until the pipe got repaired but when crews fixed the pipe another pipe burst. Water was shutoff in many areas Friday but is now back on and is safe to drink.
