Boil water alert for Jersey City residents

Due to last night’s 24-inch water main break near Route 7 at Charlotte Circle, the United Water company has launched a boil-water advisory to Jersey City residents.
“The boil water advisory is in effect indefinitely,” said Spokesperson for the United Water company, Sonja Clark. “After the main is repaired we have to take samples to test for contaminants.”
One method to purify water is to bring the water to rolling boil for one minute then letting the water cool before drinking. MR
