Another boil-water alert set Thursday for Austintown


AUSTINTOWN — The waterline on Norquest Boulevard between state Route 46 and Ohltown Road will be shut off at 7:30 a.m. Thursday as part of the Ohio Department of Transportation of state Route 46 Widening Project.

Marucci & Gaffney Excavating will be relocating the current waterline on Norquest due to a conflict with a new storm sewer catch basin. In order to accomplish this operation, a section of the current water main on Norquest will be taken out of service. The waterline will be restored at approximately 3 p.m.

The following customers will be affected: Norquest Blvd. 5521, 5525, 5529, 5530 and 5552; and Ohltown Road 125.

After the water service has been restored, the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency recommends that residents take precautions, and boil the tap water that they use for cooking and drinking.
