EMERGENCY WATER VALVE REPAIR

July 19, 2004

Residents who live in the Dupont Circle area along New Hampshire Avenue between 17th and T. Streets, NW may once again experience a water shut-off or low water pressure.

Emergency repairs will begin at 8:00 a.m. on Tuesday, July 20, 2004. Service could be off for up to nine (9) hours.

The DC Water and Sewer Authority will shut down a section of a 20-inch water main along 17th Street, NW so that DC Department of Transportation (DDOT) contractors can make an emergency water valve repair.

WASA officials delivered written notices today to the addresses that will be impacted.

Customers with additional questions can contact: WASA Water and Sewer Emergency Line at 202-612-3400.
