Request to end water boil advisory could come Thursday
MLGW announced Wednesday that the utility could ask the state for permission to end the boil advisory as early as Wednesday evening or early Thursday. (Daily Memphian file)
The advisory could be lifted in stages for parts of the MLGW area, which is most of Shelby County with the exception of Bartlett, Germantown, Collierville and Millington. Even when it is lifted MLGW president and CEO J.T. Young said the utility will still be asking households and businesses to continue conserving water for some period after the full restoration.
