On Wednesday, Aug. 31, the boil water advisories for Commerce Township and Walled Lake were lifted, but additional testing was required before the advisory for Novi could be lifted.
City officials said that when sampling the water, two negative tests taken 24 hours apart were required to lift the advisory.
