Emergency Repair Work may Cause Discolored Water for Customers Near Central & N Allen

The Water Department is continuing to repair a leak on a 30 inch water main. During this repair, we are operating system valves which may cause temporary water discoloration for customers in the area around Central Ave and N Allen.

The water discoloration is caused by the stirring up of sediment in the system and is not harmful. However, it is best to avoid doing laundry to prevent discoloration of clothes.

We apologize for this inconvenience, and we are working to limit valve operation and to diminish the area impacted. Any water discoloration should be resolved by late-afternoon. Please contact us at 518-434-5322 if you have any other questions.
