Town of Chatham   

Service Area near Intersection of Callands Road and Moses Mill Road South

 
Customers of the Town of Chatham south along Rt. 57 Callands Road near its intersection with Moses Mill Road South were notified on Monday, July 26, 2021 of a problem with our drinking water, and were advised to boil all drinking/cooking water until further notice.  
  • A water line break occurred at the intersection of Callands Road and the break was corrected on Tuesday, July 27 2021.The Boil Water Notice was issued on Tuesday as a safety precaution while the bacteriological quality of the water distributed in the water system was checked after the repaired line was returned to service. 
  • Water sampling performed on Tuesday, July 27, 2021 resulted in all distribution samples testing negative for detection of bacteria in the water.  Therefore, we are pleased to report that the problem has been corrected and that it is no longer necessary to boil all drinking/cooking water.  We apologize for any inconvenience and thank you for your patience. 
As always, you may contact Tim Hamell with InfraMark at (434) 250-6498 or the Town of Chatham Town Office at (434) 423-9515 or at 16 Court Place, Chatham Virginia with any comments or questions.
 
Please share this information with all the other people who drink this water, especially those who may not have received this notice directly (for example, people in apartments, nursing homes, schools, and businesses).  You can do this by posting this notice in a public place or distributing copies by hand or mail.
