The problem happened around 8:30 p.m. Thursday when an open valve at the Bryant Street pumping station caused a loss of pressure in parts of the distribution system for about an hour, D.C. Water said in a statement.
That loss of pressure made it “possible for contaminants to enter the water.” So as a precaution, officials said, residents should boil their water. 泵站失压有可能导致污染物进入水中。去餐馆喝瓶装水即可。
怎么都这么懒，Google下不很容易！
不谢！
华盛顿特区水务局(DC Water)13日上午发布紧急告示，由于潜在水污染威胁，华盛顿特区东北及东西区的居民及企业勿直接饮自来水，无论做饭、喝水、刷牙、制冰，都要煮沸后使用。沸水建议可能持续两天，许多商家当日已不提供冷饮。

热烈庆祝本市自来水不用加热即可用来洗澡。。。。 原来国内说的美国自来水可以饮用是个大笑话。
