Boil Water Advisory Lifted
The boil water advisory issued July 13 for all water users in Crystal, Golden Valley, and New Hope has been canceled. Water quality testing completed by the Minnesota Department of Health has confirmed the water is safe to drink and use as normal. Water users no longer need to boil water for drinking, cooking, or brushing your teeth. All residents and businesses may resume regular water use.

So, 2 hours shy of 1 1/2 days since I first noticed low pressure

Edited to add The clowns could have at least sent a text and/or email letting us know it's OK now. The only way I found out is by checking their website every 3 or so hours. And as I mentioned earlier, they took quite a long time to notify us in the first place of the problem.
