[UPDATE]

April 22, 2017 — Spotsylvania Utilities staff is continuing to flush the distribution system to eliminate any residual issues resulting from yesterday’s water main break. The voluntary boil water issuance will remain in effect until we receive the results from two consecutive bacteriological samples (each spanning 24 hours).

We appreciate your patience and cooperation during this time and will update our customers again Sunday evening.
