Syracuse, N.Y. — Mandatory water restrictions in place for nearly a month in six Central New York towns have been lifted, the Onondaga County Water Agency announced today.
The repair to a rupture transmission main is complete and the line is pressurized, OCWA said.
The agency is still asking water users in those towns to continue conserving water until water quality tests are complete and the agency’s 50-million-gallon reservoir is refilled.
“OCWA asks that customers be mindful of their consumption,” the agency said in a news release. ”Voluntary conservation will be in effect until the Eastern Reservoir, which serves the affected communities, is refilled to normal levels. This is expected to occur sometime later this week.
