Announcement from DPS Water Division

The Water Division of the Department of Public Services wants residents to know that they may be seeing slight discoloration in their drinking water. This is caused by historically high levels of manganese in the region's surface water. This has been treated so that the levels are safe for consumption and well within state and federal regulations, though some discoloration may still occur.
