Vermont Public Radio reports (https://bit.ly/2h1WfXp) that the boil water warning was announced Monday afternoon for the 1,600 customers of Tri-Town water in Addison, Bridport, and Shoreham following two leaks and an outage that left the water system vulnerable to possible groundwater contamination.
Officials at Tri-Town water say it’s unknown what caused the leaks.
The state requested that a precautionary boil water notice be issued on Monday afternoon.
Water testing is being conducted to look for the presence of fecal coliform and E. coli.
