A boil water advisory is in effect for residents in Langhorne Borough, according to the borough’s social media<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Everyone living on Station Avenue between West Richardson and West Gillam avenues should not drink the water without boiling it first or should use only bottled water.<\/p>\n

This includes making ice, washing dishes, brushing your teeth or preparing food. <\/p>\n

For those living near the site, officials say you may see discolored water<\/a> but you do not need to boil it. <\/p>\n

The advisory is being issued because a water main break was reported leading to concerns of contamination of disease-causing organisms, officials explained.<\/p>\n

Crews with the Bucks County Water and Sewer Authority (BCWSA) are working to fix the water main break. Once the main is repaired then officials will begin testing the water. <\/p>\n

No word yet on how long the boil water advisory will be in place. <\/p>\n

How to treat water under a boil water advisory<\/p>\n

When under a boil water advisory, do not use water for anything unless it has been boiled first. <\/p>\n

The steps include:<\/p>\n

Bring water to a rolling boil<\/p>\n

Let the water boil for one minute<\/p>\n

Then, let the water cool<\/p>\n

Failing to boil water properly could lead to health issues including nausea, cramps, diarrhea or headaches. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A boil water advisory is in effect for residents in Langhorne Borough, according to the borough’s social media.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":708277,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[47],"tags":[43274,192,3234,79],"class_list":["post-708276","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-environment","tag-bucks-county","tag-environment","tag-pennsylvania","tag-science"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/708276","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=708276"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/708276\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/708277"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=708276"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=708276"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=708276"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
