Public water in the town of Lisbon is safe to drink after officials feared it had been contaminated with arsenic.
Testing by the Maine Center for Disease Control found arsenic levels well within federal safe drinking standards.
The Lisbon Water Department issued a do not drink order Thursday after sludge was released into its system.
At a bottled water distribution site Friday, Courtney Adamen recalled earlier in the week people in town were posting pictures of brown, murky tap water.
"At first we’re told the water’s safe and then all of a sudden we’re like, 'Oh no, don’t be drinking that.' My dog’s been drinking it so hopefully she don’t get sick," she said.
The Maine CDC said that so far there have been no increase in symptoms of arsenic poisoning.
