According to officials at Missouri American Water, Jefferson City's boil order has been lifted. Missouri American spokesperson Ann Dettmer said test results came back Wednesday night showing the system was in good shape.

Dettmer also said the company's automated phone call alert system would not be used to alert customers Wednesday night, because the boil order was removed at nearly 9 p.m. Customers may receive these automated phone calls Thursday morning.
