FENTON, Mo. — A large portion of Fenton in St. Louis County is under a boil water advisory after a main break on Friday, according to Missouri American Water.

"Any water to be used for drinking or cooking should be brought to a rolling boil for 3 minutes," the water utility said in an alert Friday. "Water is OK for bathing, washing and other non-consumable uses. You will receive another notification should additional action be required or conditions change, or when normal water use may be resumed."

The affected area includes residences south of Salvation Ridge Court, east of Branch Road, north of Edgewood Lane and west of Green Knoll Drive. The advisory also affects Rockwood Summit High School, which starts regular classes on Monday.
