United Water New York advised residents to boil their water for one minute before drinking, cooking, taking medication, brushing their teeth, mixing baby formula or swallowing it. The advisory is required by county law once repairs have exceeded four hours.
“Our crews made a tremendous effort to get these mains fixed as quickly as possible,” United Water New York spokesman Steve Goudsmith said yesterday in an e-mail. “Our sincerest appreciation to our customers who remained very patient during this time.” [journalnews]
just wondering how did the women prepare for shabbos? Where did they get water to cook food that’s eaten on shabbos like fish, soup, chulent, eggs, etc. etc.
