Cache - City officials in the southwestern Oklahoma town of Cache are putting an indefinite hold on upgrades to the city's water service.

Mayor Shawn Komacheet says the water at two test wells drilled earlier this year is not fit for drinking. He says the city will look for other options for expanding its water system.

The engineer of the $2 million project told the City Council in October that high levels of fluoride were found in the water and that it would not be usable unless treated.

The engineer said the city could abandon the test wells and the project for about $38,400.
