Officials reduce boundaries of boil-water advisory and announce plan to discount water bills citywide by 25%

Baltimore officials reduced the boundaries of a boil-water advisory on Wednesday, after another round of water testing results returned one positive test for E. coli and coliform contamination in West Baltimore. Department of Public Works Director Jason W. Mitchell said Wednesday afternoon the agency is still working to identify the source of the contaminants, which were first detected in three different areas in West Baltimore’s Harlem Park neighborhood during routine testing last week.
