Narragansett, South Kingstown Issue Full Water Ban

NARRAGANSETT-SOUTH KINGSTOWN, RI — A full outdoor water ban has been issued in Narragansett and South Kingstown, expanding the previous partial ban.

The ban was expanded due to dry conditions and high consumer demand, town officials said, and applies to SUEZ Water and Town, all Narragansett customers and the South Shore and Middlebridge systems in South Kingstown. Kingston water district customers are not included in the ban.

A partial water ban was first put in place in early June, and was expanded to include weekends a few weeks later.

Until further notice, all outdoor water usage is banned to allow for sufficient fire protection and enough to meet residents' needs.
