The City of Marietta has issued a boil advisory for water customers on Hillcrest Drive, Hillside Way and Shellmar Drive due to an emergency water line repair.

The advisory includes approximately 25 to 30 service connections on those streets and anyone else in the area who loses water pressure.

Customers who may have experienced a loss of water service or pressure are advised to rapid boil drinking water or water used in food preparation for two minutes following restoration of water service. The announcement says customers should flush their service lines using cold water lines only until the water is clear. Brown or cloudy water due to mineral deposits or air are normal discolorations after an interruption in service.

The advisory will remain in effect until customers are notified of its cancellation through local media.
