Regulations from PA DEP Regarding Water Main Breaks

There is very specific protocol required by DEP (Department of Environmental Protection www.dep.state.pa.us) when a water main break occurs.  Depending on how and what type of break happens, precautionary boil notices will be put out.  When you see the boil notice, there isn’t necessarily a problem, we are just following DEP protocol.  Please feel free to contact our office at 653-5938 or by e-mail authority@mountjoypa.org if you see a boil notice and have any questions.
