Joyce-area boil-water advisory lifted

JOYCE — A precautionary boil water order for Crescent Water Association customers was lifted Saturday afternoon.

The association, which serves 867 connections in the greater Joyce area, had issued the order on Wednesday.

On Tuesday, the association had lost power after a backup generator blew out.

Power to the water plant went down Sunday when Clallam County Public Utility District service to the Joyce area went out.

Water pressure dropped following the outages, and prompted the issue of the order.

It was lifted Saturday afternoon after health officials conducted a water test and determined the water was safe, said the association’s bookkeeper/receptionist Kathy Blanton, who passed the word along from association Manager Robert Beauvais.
