WEST PITTSTON, LUZERNE CO. (WOLF) \u2014 Residents in parts of West Pittston may experience water issues Wednesday as crews respond to a water main break.<\/p>\n
American Water says emergency repairs are underway in areas including 2nd Street, Delaware Avenue, North Street, and Philadelphia Avenue. Work is expected to begin around 10 a.m. and could take up to seven hours to complete.<\/p>\n
Customers in the affected area may notice low water pressure, discolored or cloudy water, or a temporary loss of service while repairs are being made.<\/p>\n
Officials say once service is restored, some households may continue to see changes in water quality. Residents are advised to run cold water from the lowest faucet in their home if discoloration occurs, or run water from the highest faucet if it appears cloudy. The issue should clear within a few minutes.<\/p>\n
American Water is also asking landlords to notify tenants about the disruption and is reminding the public to stay clear of crews working in the area for safety reasons.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"WEST PITTSTON, LUZERNE CO.
