PORTLAND, Maine — City officials in Lewiston released a statement Wednesday to help clarify something that has confused locals after they reportedly have been receiving calls about a boil water order.
Yes, there is an active boil-water advisory for parts of Lewiston—but not in Lewiston, Maine.
According to sister station KREM, based in Spokane, Washington, officials in Lewiston, Idaho, issued a boil-water order and are asking all City of Lewiston customers to "conserve water after a reservoir failure."
Several schools in the Gem State city were also closed Wednesday as a result of the infrastructure issue.
