Boil water advisory lifted at Parlee Beach
The advisory was the result of employees watering the lawn after turning off a switch that ensures water is free of coliform bacteria.
Operations back to normal, according to Department of Tourism
A boil water advisory in place since last Thursday at Parlee Beach has been lifted.
The advisory was the result of employees watering the lawn after turning off a switch that keeps the water free of coliform bacteria.
Signs at the park, which has a restaurant, advised visitors not to drink the water.
The advisory was lifted Tuesday afternoon, said Jennifer Vienneau, a spokesperson for the Department of Tourism.
Vienneau said the park passed two water tests done after June 1 and operations have returned to normal.
The boil water advisory coincided with the first two hot days of the beach season.
