Boil water advisory lifted for Selma

SELMA, N.C. (WTVD) -- The boil water advisory in effect for Selma since Monday was finally lifted on Wednesday evening.

It was originally in place for 24 hours but had been extended because water safety testing was not complete.

The advisory went into effect because of a water main break that crews worked to repair since early Monday morning.

The Town of Selma said Wednesday that all required water testing has been completed.

Water and pressure levels have recovered throughout the town and will continue to increase throughout the night, town officials said.
