Update at 2:01 p.m., Feb. 23: The water main break has been repaired and the interconnection with Rowley has been closed.
Georgetown– The Georgetown Water Department would like to make residents aware of a large water main failure in Rowley. Georgetown Water is in the process of opening its interconnection in an effort to assist the Rowley Water Department and ensure adequate access to water in the shortterm. Due to this new demand and disruptions to typical water flow, residents may experience discolored water. In the event residents experience water discoloration, they should run a high flow faucet (like a bathtub) until water runs clear. Georgetown Water is carefully monitoring this water flow and if it appears that Georgetown’s Water supply falls short in the process the interconnect will be closed immediately. Police and Fire have been notified of the situation as well.
