The Town of Norway is advising water customers to vigorously boil their water for at least one minute prior to drinking or cooking.
According to a statement from Mayor Lynn Garrick, a major line break on Harrison Avenue on Thursday resulted in a loss of pressure and service to many of the customers of Norway. There has been no confirmed contamination of the system. However, because of the loss of pressure, the potential for contamination exists.
Therefore, as a precautionary measure, the customers of Norway are advised to boil their water until notified otherwise. Also, any ice made from water which has not been boiled should not be used for drinking purposes.
Water system personnel are working to restore pressure and service to the entire area.
