Water advisory continues overnight in Seneca Falls

The conservation advisory issued for the Town of Seneca Falls and all those who are serviced with Seneca Falls Water will continue overnight and into tomorrow. A Conservation Advisory is an advisory to limit water usage as much as possible. The water main break at the water treatment plant has been repaired however levels in our water towers have been affected. You may experience some anticipated issues, such as cloudy or whitish colored water; this is air in the system making its way out. Let the “cold” water run for a short period of time to remove it from your system. The water may also smell like chlorine, this is a direct result of changing over the purification process and is normal under these circumstances. The Town of Seneca Falls is doing everything they can at this time to ensure that the water supply is safe for consumption. We sincerely appreciate the understanding and cooperation of all those effected at this time. Residents may choose at their discretion to boil your water until our advisory is lifted. We are anticipating that conditions will be back to normal on Thursday. We will post an update when we have additional information. Please check back at FingerLakes1.com for the latest updates.
