Boil water advisory in effect for parts of Dover after emergency issue at public water system
DOVER - A boil water advisory is in effect for parts of Dover after an emergency issue with the town's main water system.
Aquarion Water Company said Dover's main water system experienced a problem during maintenance at the Francis Street wells on Friday, which resulted in low water pressure or no water for customers. The treatment plant and sources were taken offline to fix the problem and normal water pressure has since been restored.
Aquarion said they're collecting samples to ensure the water is safe and in the meantime, customers are asked to use bottled water or boil their water before using it. For the latest updates, click here.
