Fort Mill and Tega Cay residents are still under a boil water advisory today following last weekend’s major water main break. York County officials confirmed that anyone who lost service or experienced low water pressure during the outage should continue boiling water before use.

The advisory is a precaution while water samples are tested to ensure the supply is safe. Results are expected later today, and the advisory will be lifted once the system clears inspection. Until then, residents are urged to boil water before cooking, brushing teeth, or drinking.

This is the latest step in a series of repairs that began after a 24-inch water main break disrupted service to thousands of homes. While water has been restored, the testing process is essential for public safety.

The incident highlights the importance of reliable infrastructure as Fort Mill and Tega Cay continue to grow. Local officials have promised timely updates once the advisory is lifted, and residents are encouraged to stay tuned to county alerts.
