Alexandria City: Planned Water System Improvements

This is an important notification from Virginia American Water about a planned water disruption and/or outage in your area. Our contractor will be repairing a water main and sewer lateral in front of 210 South Fayette Street. Weather permitting, disruption will occur on Thursday, May 22 between the hours of 9 a.m. and 6 p.m. If you are receiving this notice, you reside in the impacted area and may experience no water, low water pressure, or discolored/cloudy water. If you are a landlord and water service is in your name, please inform your tenants so they are aware of this water disruption.When water service is restored, you may experience discolored/cloudy water. If your water is discolored, run the cold water taps only at the lowest level of the house for about three to five minutes until the water runs clear. You will not receive any further notification unless additional action is required, or conditions change.It is important to note that our contractor will try to keep one traffic lane open at all times for local traffic as long as it can be done safely. Construction should not impact resident’s access to homes and driveways. Please follow traffic controls instructions and the “NO PARKING” signage that will be posted by the City of Alexandria. Some construction noise will be unavoidable with this project, but our contractor will work to minimize the disturbance. If you are a landlord and water service is in your name, please inform your tenants so they are aware of this construction. For more information or to see a map of the affected area please go to www.amwater.com/vaaw/alerts .
