BOIL YOUR WATER BEFORE USING 


Failure to follow this advisory could result in stomach or intestinal illness.
Due to the a water main break on Hamburg Turnpike near Valley Road and the resulting water 
pressure drop in the surrounding area, the Wayne Township Division of Water is advising residents 
east of Alps Road and east of Berdan Avenue to use boiled tap water or bottled water for drinking 
and cooking purposes as a safety precaution. 
DO NOT DRINK THE WATER WITHOUT BOILING IT FIRST. Bring all water to a boil, let it 
boil for one (1) minute, and let it cool before using, or use bottled water. Boiled or bottled water 
should be used for drinking and food preparation until further notice.
We will inform you when tests show no bacteria and you no longer need to boil your water. We 
anticipate resolving the problem by Thursday, August 30, 2012 
For more information call the Division of Water at 973-694-5090.
