The Boil Water Advisory For Danbury Has Been Lifted

DANBURY, CT --- The Mayor's Office has alerted residents that the Boil Water Advisory has concluded. They are advising residents, businesses, food service establishments, schools, childcare facilities, and healthcare facilities to “flush” their water following the lifting of the boil water notice to clear plumbing of potentially contaminated water.

Flushing your building water lines includes interior and exterior faucets, showers, water and ice dispensers, water treatment units, cooling towers and so on. City water can be consumed and used as normal, after taking appropriate measures.

Water sampling has been completed and results shared with the Connecticut Department of Public Health Drinking Water Section. The Advisory followed the severe water main break that occurred Monday evening at the Tamarack and Hayestown Avenue location, leaving one third of the City without water.
