Relief Washes Over Warren County as Boil Water Advisory is Finally Lifted!

New Jersey American Water announced today that the boil water advisory, which had impacted thousands of residents across Warren County, has been officially lifted. This much-anticipated news brings a wave of relief to communities that had been carefully boiling their water for days following a significant water main break.

The advisory was initially issued after a substantial water main break occurred on Route 519 in White Township.

This incident led to a loss of system pressure, raising concerns about potential contamination and prompting the utility to advise customers to boil their tap water as a precautionary measure.

The affected areas included a wide swath of the county, specifically White Township, Washington Borough, Washington Township, Oxford Township, Mansfield Township, Franklin Township, Harmony Township, and Greenwich Township.

Residents in these municipalities diligently followed the guidance, ensuring their water was safe for consumption, cooking, and other uses.

New Jersey American Water crews worked tirelessly to address the situation. Their swift response involved promptly repairing the damaged water main and meticulously flushing the water distribution system to remove any potential impurities.

Following these critical steps, the utility commenced a rigorous water quality testing process.

For two consecutive days, water samples collected from across the affected service area underwent comprehensive laboratory analysis. The results confirmed that the water supply now meets all state and federal drinking water standards, ensuring its safety for all uses without the need for boiling.

During the advisory, customers were instructed to bring all water to a rolling boil for one minute and allow it to cool before use.

This applied to drinking, cooking, baking, making ice cubes, washing dishes, brushing teeth, and even preparing baby formula. With the advisory now rescinded, residents can return to their normal routines, confident in the quality of their tap water.

New Jersey American Water expresses its gratitude for the patience and cooperation of its customers during this challenging period.

For any further questions or concerns, customers are encouraged to contact New Jersey American Water’s customer service center at 1-800-272-1325.
