Water preservation measures continue in Oswego city as the boil, conserve water advisory is prolonged.
The city of Oswego, New York, has extended a boil and conserve water advisory due to a water main break. The advisory, which initially was announced late last Thursday, is expected to last through Friday, but the exact duration depends on ongoing water quality testing and repair work.
The advisory applies to the southwestern section of the city and includes activities such as drinking, making ice, washing dishes, brushing teeth, and preparing food. Residents are advised to boil tap water for at least one minute before use.
To conserve water, residents are encouraged to refrain from watering a lawn or running sprinklers, and to use water sparingly in their daily activities. For the most accurate and up-to-date information on how long the advisory will last and the specific affected areas, it is best to check official announcements from the Oswego city government or Oswego County Public Health Department.
If you have questions, you can contact the city at 315-343-8481 or 315-349-3557. Jon Moss, staff writer, covers breaking news, crime, and public safety, and can be reached at jmoss@our website or on Twitter at @mossjon7.
In a separate incident, a man was shot in the leg in Syracuse, and two teens have been charged with attempted murder in relation to the shooting. Further information about the cause or extent of the water main break was not provided in the advisory.
