BROOKLAWN NJ--Around 3PM today the Borough of Brooklawn announced on their facebook page that the ban on drinking water has been lifted.
As result of a water main break yesterday residents had been advised to boil their water until the state Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) tested the water.
That test normally takes 24-hours, according to the Borough's Public Works Department.
Below are two announcements that had been posted today on the Borough's Facebook page.
