Water Buffalo Helps Water Customers

Pennsylvania American Water says it now has a water buffalo at the West Elizabeth Methodist Church (730 Fifth Street, West Elizabeth) where customers can get water for flushing, hand washing and other larger volume activities. Bottled water is still available at the same location. Customers are being told to bring their own containers. A water main break yesterday prompted Penn American to issue a mandatory water conservation notice in Clairton, Elizabeth Borough, Elizabeth Township, Liberty, Lincoln, West Elizabeth, Dravosburg and Glassport. Customers may see low pressure or no pressure at all. The company says it will notify customers when service has been restored at its web page under the Alert Notifications section. When service resumes a boil order will likely be in place until the system is fully operational.
