Due to a planned main waterline replacement Jersey Shore Water Authority customer in the areas of Antes Fort, Nippenose Township, South Avis, Porter Township, Jersey Shore Borough, Piatt Township from Larryville to Jersey Shore Borough will experience temporary water service outages and or periods of low pressures on March 19th, it is anticipated that service will be fully restored by 5pm
Please make preparations for this outage. Suggestions include:
- Draw water for drinking and cooking prior to interruption.
- Consider turning off water heater until service is restored – most water heaters have integral protections but cutting power will ensure no problems occur.
- Make sure all faucets and hose bibs are off during the interruption.
Once service is restored, Jersey Shore Water Authority staff will flush the distribution lines in the affected areas. This may continue for 2-6 hours. Please be aware that periods of air and/or discoloration are likely upon service being restored. This poses no health risk in and of itself. Flushing your system by leaving a faucet running should clear the lines.
Please contact the Jersey Shore Water Authority at 570-398-1443 if you have any questions concerning this notice. This message is being delivered through Jersey Shore Water Authority. Please relay this information to neighbors and family. Thank You.
