Columbia Water Boil Water Repeal 
 
To Columbia Water Customers located at the 1100 and 1200 blocks of Catawba St as well as 100-300 blocks of Main St and 900-1200 blocks of Whaley St, 
Columbia Water laboratory staff advises the water customers of the 1100 and 1200 blocks of Catawba St as well as 100-300 blocks of Main St and 900-1200 blocks of Whaley St, located in Richland County, they no longer need to boil their water prior to drinking or cooking. 
Following an intense flushing of the distribution system, bacteriological samples were collected and analyzed by the City of Columbia Water Department.  The results of this sampling indicate that the system is safe to use for drinking and cooking purposes.   
Columbia Water sends out these Advisories when there is a significant drop in water pressure within the distribution system. Residents can sign up to receive notices for their area at: https://local.nixle.com/register/.
