PULASKI, N.Y. — A water main break has affected the Pulaski High School, causing the water to be shut off. It started on Saturday morning and is expected to last until Monday, February 16. Water testing will be done to ensure there is no contamination.

Until then, there is a boil water order for the billage. Any water used to cook, drink, make ice, brush teeth, wash dishes and make food with should be from bottled or boiled water.

When boiling water for use, Oswego County advises residents to bring tap water to a rolling boil, boil for a minute and let it sit before using it.

The water main break happened on the six-inch service line that services the high school.

According to the Oswego County Health Department and the Village of Pulaski Department of Public Works, a contractor has been on site to repair the main break. Once that is complete, bacteriological samples will be collected by the village to confirm that the water is safe to drink.
