Rockdale County Water Resources (RWR) is pleased to announce that the precautionary boil water advisory issued for the northern portion of Rockdale County has been lifted, effective immediately.
The advisory was issued following a water main that was damaged by a private contractor that resulted in temporarily low water pressure in the affected area. RWR crews promptly repaired the damaged water main, flushed the water system, and restored normal water pressure.
As part of RWR’s water quality verification process, microbiological testing for coliform bacteria was conducted at 20 separate locations throughout the affected area. The test results have been reviewed and all samples met applicable water quality standards.
Residents in the affected area may now resume normal use of their tap water, including drinking, cooking, making ice, and other household activities.
Rockdale County Water Resources appreciates the community’s patience and cooperation during this precautionary measure. We also thank our customers for their understanding as RWR worked diligently to restore the system and ensure the safety and quality of the County’s drinking water.
Rockdale County Water Resources remains committed to providing safe, reliable, and high-quality drinking water to our community.
