LASHMEET, W.Va. (August 8, 2012) -- West Virginia American Water has lifted a precautionary boil water advisory for approximately 600 customers in the Lashmeet area of Mercer County in the company's Bluestone district. The advisory was issued Tuesday for parts of Route 10, Reese Harmon Ridge Road, Mt. Olive Road, Wright Mountain, Old Lashmeet Road and Beeson Road following a water main break, which West Virginia American Water crews have repaired.

Results of water quality testing have confirmed that water quality meets drinking water standards. Therefore, there is no further need to boil water prior to consumption.
