Boil Water Advisory Repeal for Customers in the Riverdale Community and Surrounding Streets

FOR THE CUSTOMERS OF THE CITY OF CAMDEN WATER SYSTEM IN THE FOLLOWING AREAS:
CERTAIN PORTIONS OF COLLINS CIRCLE, OLD RIVER RD, CHESTNUT FERRY RD (BETWEEN OLD RIVER RD & W. DEKALB ST), WILD TURKEY LN, KINGS AVE, WATEREE BLVD, CURETON RD, BELTON CT, COMPETITION DR, RIVERWINDS APTS, CAMDEN COVE APTS, AND WATEREE VILLAS 
 
The City of Camden advises its water customers located in the above areas, that they no longer need to boil their water. As of September 14, 2017, results from laboratory testing indicate the water on this system is safe to drink and use for other purposes without the need for boiling.
 
Repairs have been made to a broken water line on Chestnut Ferry Rd, which generated a precautionary Boil Water Advisory On September 13th. Following that work the nearby water lines had to be systematically flushed and then samples collected and analyzed to determine water quality.
 
We apologize for any inconvenience regarding the return to normal conditions and appreciate the cooperation from our customers. You may also visit the City’s website at www.cityofcamden.org for confirmation of the Boil Water Repeal information.
Again the Boil Water Advisory for the above listed areas has been lifted. Should you have any questions, please contact the City of Camden Public Works office at (803) 425-6045 or SCDHEC at (803) 778-1531.
