New water line hookup means no water for some in West Columbia on Monday

If you are a customer of the City of West Columbia water service, time to get out the jugs and fill them with water. Monday morning may be too late.

A swath of West Columbia will face the discomfort of no running water during the day on Monday, and maybe Tuesday, too, as new water lines on Rainbow Drive are connected, city officials warned on Friday.
