WATER UPDATE — from Deputy Mayor Joe Myers:

I wanted to update everyone on the recent progress the water department has made on the emergency interconnection project. As a reminder, the interconnection will connect above ground from one hydrant in Hamilton to another hydrant in Bordentown Township, and increase the water supply into our distribution system.

Over the past few days, the team at the water department received the piping and materials for the physical construction

of the emergency interconnection. The team is finishing up the setup, and conducting a testing and sampling period. The water department’s goal is to be able to start opening up the hydrants and accepting additional water on Thursday or Friday of this week.

We will keep everyone posted, but please feel free to call, text, or email with any questions.

Thanks,

Deputy Mayor Joe Myers,

Director of Public Works and Water (609-556-7837)
