Old City Fire

Attention all water customers:

Due to the ongoing efforts to control the fire off New Fitchburg Rd the Fire personnel required the use of a hydrant at the intersection of New Fitchburg Rd and Jonathan Ln to help provide water for fire protection. Unfortunately, this has caused discolored water throughout the town. This is likely to continue until the fire is eradicated and could take some time to settle out and return to normal. Once cleared up, customers should continue to flush internal piping by running an outside spigot at a moderate stream for an additional 20-30 minutes and flushing your hot water heater.

We thank the Townsend Fire-EMS department for their efforts.
If you have any questions, please call our office at 978-597-2212 or email us at water@townsendwater.org.
Thank you
