The Town of Carolina Beach has rescinded the boil-water advisory it issued yesterday.
“Bacteriological analysis results of drinking water samples collected recently from this water system show no
coliform bacteria present,” a stated release from the town Wednesday morning. “The system has resumed normal operations.”
The advisory had followed a water-main rupture on Monday. The town on Tuesday had explained that periods of low or no pressure in the system had “increased the potential for back siphonage and introduction of bacteria into the water system.”
