LOCK HAVEN, PA – City government Wednesday posted a boil water advisory for city water customers at the south end of S. Jones Street and adjacent Mt Vernon Street. A Lock Haven public works crew repaired the leak at the two streets’ intersection.

The advisory is in effect until an all-clear is given:

BOIL WATER ADVISORY

Jones St. may be at increased risk for Microbial Contamination. On Wednesday, August 9, 2023, we experienced a loss of positive water pressure due to line repair.

Residents should not drink the water without boiling it first. Bring all water to a rolling boil, let it boil for one minute, and let it cool before using; or use bottled water. You should use boiled or bottled water for drinking, making ice, washing dishes, brushing teeth, and food preparation until further notice.

We will inform you when all corrective actions have been completed and when you no longer need to boil your water. For more information, please contact the Water Department at 570-893-5909.
