Jordan and Elbridge residents ordered to boil water due to disinfection issue

Residents and businesses in Jordan and Elbridge, New York, have been ordered to boil their water due to inadequate disinfection caused by a malfunction in the chlorination system. The issue has been fixed, and officials expect it to be resolved within three days. The Onondaga County Health Department advises boiling water for drinking, cooking, and hygiene until further notice. This precaution is necessary to eliminate harmful microbes that may be present in the water supply. Residents using private wells are not affected by this order. The county will notify the public when water quality is restored and boiling is no longer required.
