Boil Water Advisory for Consumers On Two Streets in Wakefield

The Rhode Island Department of Health (RIDOH) is issuing a precautionary boil water
advisory for consumers of the SUEZ water system on two streets in Wakefield.

The advisory is in effect for consumers on Narragansett Avenue and on Old Tower Hill
Road from the Dale Carlia Shopping Center to the Wakefield Mall.

As a result of a water main issue, these consumers currently do not have water
service. SUEZ is working to address the issue.

Once service is restored, customers in this area should boil their water for one
minute before it is consumed. This includes drinking, cooking, baking, washing
dishes, making ice cubes, taking medication, brushing teeth, washing food, mixing
baby formula, mixing juices or drinks, and feeding pets. However, the water does not
to be boiled for bathing or washing clothes.

The precautionary boil water advisory will remain in effect until it is lifted by
RIDOH.

For more information, customers should contact the SUEZ water system at 401-789-0271.
