The Town wishes to advise the residents and customers of the Ward 2 water system that the Boil Water Advisory has been rescindedby the Department of Health effective at 8:30 pm Saturday July 29, 2023.
The Town appreciates everyone’s patience as the Town worked through the corrective action over the past week.
UPDATE: July 28, 2023, 5:00 pm.
The Town is in receipt of the attached letter issued by the District Medical Office Of Health.
The Town thanks you for your continued patience. There are no expected updates prior to August 01, 2023 pursuant to the directive.
The Town has secured a source to supply bottled water in sufficient quantities for those who need it.
The Town has designated two pickup locations for bottled water distribution, and Town staff will be at these locations to assist in loading the bottled water:
Friday July 28, 2023 – 12:00 pm to 8:00 pm at both locations
Saturday July 29, 2023 – 10:00 am to 4:00 pm at both locations
The Town thanks you for your continued patience. Our next scheduled update will be Friday July 28, 2023 at 4:00 pm.
UPDATE: July 27, 2023, 4:30 p.m.
The Town is in receipt of our analyzed expanded sample testing completed on Wednesday July 26. Our normal testing sites have been increased to better assess the quality of the system water. Test results were received and reviewed by the Department of Health late Today July 27, 2023.
The results were encouraging but continue to be problematic at two connected sampling stations. These devices although not part of the system delivering clean water to the Ward 2 System customers both continue to test positive for coliform bacteria. All system test locations remain negative.
The Town has taken immediate steps to further flush the extremities of the Ward 2 system to freshen the aged water in the system prior to today’s samples being sent to the lab for analysis. Given the issues with the sampling stations the town has requested directly to the Department of Heath and has received agreement on the need to implement alternate sites for compliance testing. A further round of samples were deliver to the lab late this afternoon.
All sample points prior sampling continues to have measurable value of total chlorine and residual chlorine at each sample point. All chlorine tests are considered normal and above achievable disinfection levels.
The Town is actively seeking a source to supply bottled water in sufficient quantities for those who need it. Once we secure a supply a further notice will be issued to indicate the times and locations for pickup. We believe the Sussex Corner Works Garage on Cougle Road, and the former Village Office on Main Street will be designated as pickup sites.
It is not expected the advisory will end until Saturday July 29, depending on the analysis of the test results and if testing results satisfy the Department of Health..
The Town thanks you for your continued patience. Our next scheduled update will be Friday July 28, 2023 at 4:00 pm.

The Town is in receipt of our analyzed expanded sample testing completed on Tuesday July 25. Our normal testing sites have been increased to better assess the quality of the system water. Test results were received and reviewed by the Department of Health late Today July 26, 2023
The results were encouraging but continue to be problematic at two connected sampling stations. These devices, although not part of the system delivering clean water to the Ward 2 System customers, both continue to test positive for coliform bacteria, but now at significantly lower values. The Town has taken immediate steps to further flush the extremities of the Ward 2 system to freshen the aged water in the system prior to today’s samples being sent to the lab for analysis. Given the issues with the sampling stations the town has requested directly to the Department of Heath to permit alternate sites for compliance testing. The sampling device is no different than a sink connected to the system and is not representative of the systems water quality, but simply the cleanliness of the device. Simply put, it is believed the device needs fixing, not the system. To that end, the sampling stations were completely disassembled and soaked in a bath of chlorine for an extended period today. It is believed this extra step will assist in the remediation of the two sampling stations as they were reassembled then tested.
All sample points prior sampling continue to have measurable value of total chlorine and residual chlorine at each sample point. All chlorine tests are considered normal and above achievable disinfection levels.
It is not expected the advisory will end today, and the Town is hopeful and looking forward to the Thursday July 27 results.
The Town thanks you for your continued patience.
