The Tulsa City-County Health Department announced Wednesday all restaurants using the City of Broken Arrow water supply must close immediately due to a precautionary boil order. A major water main break Monday night forced the boil order for all residents and businesses. By Wednesday morning, restaurants were ordered closed. "Due to the volume of water needed to safely operate a restaurant, all food establishments that serve open food must cease operations immediately until such time that the boil order has been lifted," a news release said. "Open food" is defined as food that is not prepackaged and is prepared on site. A lot of people went out to for lunch, but were turned away. "We looked at the door and it said the health department closed it, because the water was off," said Peggy Clay. The restaurants were closed by the health department, because of the boil order.
