West View Water Authority Water Advisory for Cranberry Township

Cranberry Twp., PA – Due to an abrupt increase in water production, sediment was stirred up in the piping distribution system causing discolored water. The water is safe to drink.

 

The increase was necessary to store water in preparation for a potential shutdown resulting from the train derailment in Harmar, upstream of both of our water treatment facilities.

 

If you experience discolored water or stained laundry:

  • Do not continue to use the water for laundry.
  • Keep the laundry items damp until the water clears.
  • Do not use chlorine bleach.
  • Soak the items for a few hours and re-launder with your regular detergent and non-chlorine bleach.
