A boil-water advisory in Virginia's capital will remain in place at least until Saturday morning, officials said, leaving residents without drinkable tap water for a fourth day following an outage at the city's treatment facility.
Richmond Mayor Danny Avula said during a news conference Friday morning that officials conducted a first test of the facility's water after pressure was fully restored on Thursday. Avula has said that the advisory can only be lifted following two negative bacteria tests of the water — each taken 16 hours apart.
