Boil Water Repeal for Customers for certain portions of York St (CHS, Bus Depot), Wylie St, Ehrenclou Dr and Bramblewood Plantation

FOR THE CUSTOMERS OF THE CITY OF CAMDEN WATER SYSTEM IN THE FOLLOWING AREAS:
CERTAIN PORTIONS OF YORK ST (CAMDEN HIGH SCHOOL, BUS DEPOT), WYLIE ST (1018, 1004, 1000, 1145, 1139, 1137, 1133, CAR WASH), EHRENCLOU DRIVE (SCDMV, SCNG, BALL FIELDS), ALL OF BRAMBLEWOOD PLANTATION RD, 1104 CHESTNUT FERRY AND NEARBY AREAS
 
The City of Camden advises its water customers located in the above areas, that they no longer need to boil their water. As of October 7, 2018, results from laboratory testing indicate the water on this system is safe to drink and use for other purposes without the need for boiling.
 
The related construction work on a local SCDOT project, which generated the precautionary Boil Water Advisory, was completed on the evening of October 6th. Following that work, the water lines were 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 as we improve our roads and utilities. 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.
