CAYCE (WACH) -- A boil water advisory is in effect for the entire city of Cayce.

According to Interim City Manager Steve Brown, a water main break on Highway 321 at I-26 may have contaminated the water supply.

Low pressure or no pressure at all has been reported for water customers in the corporate limits and on Highway 321.

Officials urge residents to boil water for consumption and cooking for at least five minutes.

Restaurant workers at the Hardee's off Highway 321 say they've had to close their doors due to the problem.

Employees say they have no water pressure to wash their hands, and don't have the capabilities to boil water to keep the restaurant open.

The broken pipe has been repaired, but the advisory is in effect until further notice.
