A boil water order issued for a portion of the Fulton County Water Association has been lifted.

The Arkansas Department of Health (ADH) website indicates the order was lifted Friday afternoon for customers east of Young Road in Salem.

The order was issued following a water line break.

Meanwhile, the ADH website indicates a boil order issued last week for the entire Compton Waterworks system in Newton County remains in effect. This order was a result of a main break.

All water customers in the impacted areas need to boil water used for cooking or consumption briskly for three to five minutes.

The boil orders will be in effect until water samples tested by the state are deemed good.
