Greifswald's Water Safe Again After Inspections

Residents of Greifswald can breathe a sigh of relief as the city's water supply has been declared safe for consumption. Inspections have found no defects, and no bacteria were detected at any tap.

The city's health department has lifted the boiling order for drinking water, which was previously in place due to slight contamination with enterococci found in a routine control. The water supply in Greifswald, excluding the island of Riems, was affected by the contamination. Despite the previous incident, thorough inspections have now confirmed that the water is usable without restrictions.

The search for the leader of the waterworks in Greifswald during the water pollution incident has not yielded information, as the results do not provide details about their role.
