DUNCANNON, Pa. (WHTM) – A Boil Water Advisory remains in place through the weekend for residents of Duncannon Borough.
A statement on the Borough’s website reads: “After consulting with our engineer and our water system operator, the decision has been made to keep the Boil Water Advisory in effect through the weekend.
It had been hoped that the advisory could be lifted late in the day on Sunday, however one final part of the project must be completed on Monday.
Original plans called for that to be isolated from the system, so it would not cause any loss of pressure.
However, given the problems experienced all week in trying to isolate areas for shutdowns and the unpredictable condition of many of the valves in our system, the professionals advise we cannot count on that approach working.
Water will be turned on throughout the weekend and it is hoped any outage on Monday will be brief, and isolated.
However, if you are in an area under the Boil Water Advisory, please continue to boil water before consuming it.
We will issue another Code Red alert when the Boil Water Advisory is lifted.
We will also post updates on the Borough’s web site and Facebook page.” Get breaking news, weather, and traffic on the go.
