Pennsylvania American Water Co. customers in portions of Allegheny County no longer need to boil their water before use or take any additional precautions, the company announced Sunday.

Acceptable test results were obtained from samples collected on Sept. 20 and 21, and the state Department of Environmental Protection has authorized lifting the advisory.

Clairton, Dravosburg, Homestead, Jefferson Hills, Munhall, Pleasant Hills, West Homestead, West Mifflin and Whitaker were among more than 30 communities affected. The advisory was issued following a massive water-main break Friday morning in Pittsburgh’s Carrick neighborhood.
