North East Borough is issuing a Boil Water Advisory effective immediately for all residential, commercial and industrial customers of the North East Borough Water system.
On December 20, 2024, the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (PADEP) issued a Field Order requiring the boil water advisory to the North East Borough Water Department as a result of a PADEP scheduled filter plant inspection. PADEP noted tears and standing water on the floating cover at Fairchild Reservoir which provides finished water for North East Borough and North East Township. The cover is scheduled for repair and replacement as soon as possible and water has been and is being tested daily and to date there have been no exceedances of numerical limits. Customers will be notified when the boil water advisory has been lifted and the boiling of water is no longer required.
Please feel free to share this information with other water system users. For more information you can contact the Patrick Gehrlein- North East Borough at (814)-725-8611 or Patrick.gehrlein@northeastborough.com. The official Notice is also available at www.northeastborough.com.
