密西西比州解除杰克逊居民烧水通知

2022-09-16 09:27  -ABC   - 

州卫生部门宣布,密西西比州周四结束了对杰克逊所有居民的烧水通知。

这个消息是在经过几天的干旱后,水压力恢复到州府居民的近两个星期后发布的缺水危机影响了成千上万的杰克逊人。

自7月29日以来,一份烧开水的通知在杰克逊生效,该市表示,在取消通知之前,需要“两轮干净的样本”,并补充说:“一旦发生这种情况,我们将提醒居民。”

周二,密西西比州卫生部开始正式对水质进行检测。他们连续两天收集了120个样本,”州长泰特·里维斯在周四的新闻发布会上说。"我们现在可以宣布,我们已经恢复了杰克逊市的清洁用水."

上个月,由于主要水处理厂的水泵出现故障,杰克逊至少有18万人没有可靠的饮用水。

里维斯于8月30日宣布进入紧急状态,以解决这一问题。

在周四的新闻发布会上,里夫斯吹捧密西西比州在解决杰克逊的水问题方面所做的努力,包括增加水的产量,恢复水压以及在水处理设施处安装应急泵。

市和州官员一直在帮助向居民分发饮用水和非饮用水。

该州分发了近1200万瓶水,但分发工作将很快结束,因为烧水通知已经取消,州应急管理局执行主任斯蒂芬·麦克拉尼在新闻发布会上说。

Mississippi lifts boil water notice for Jackson residents

Mississippi ended its boil water notice for all of Jackson's residents on Thursday, the state's health department announced.

The news comes nearly two weeks after water pressure returned to the state capital's residents after days of awater shortage crisisthat impacted thousands of Jacksonians.

A boil water notice was in effect in Jackson since July 29, with the city saying that it needed "two rounds of clear samples" before it could lift the notice, adding: "We will alert residents as soon as this happens."

"On Tuesday, the Mississippi State Department of Health began officially conducting tests of the water quality. They collected 120 samples for two consecutive days," Gov. Tate Reeves said at a press conference on Thursday. "We can now announce we have restored clean water to the city of Jackson."

Last month, at least 180,000 people went without reliable drinking water in Jackson after pumps at the main water treatment plant failed.

Reeves declared a state of emergency on Aug. 30 to address the issue.

At Thursday's press conference, Reeves touted Mississippi's efforts in fixing the water issues in Jackson, including increasing how much water is produced,restoring water pressureand installing an emergency pump at the water treatment facility.

City and state officials have been helping to distribute drinkable and non-drinkable water to residents.

The state distributed nearly 12 million bottles of water, but distribution will end soon since the boil water notice has been lifted, Stephen McCraney, the executive director of the state Emergency Management Agency, said at the press conference.
