Veolia said that this temporary restriction by its customers in southern Dauphin County will preserve its stored supplies of water.

The company said Tuesday that recent heavy rains stirred up sediment that has clogged the Sixth Street water treatment plant, and this temporary water restriction will preserve its stored supplies of water.

Customers are being asked to immediately stop all non-essential use of water to conserve supplies while Veolia brings the plant back online. Customers should refrain from watering lawns, filling pools, washing cars or performing other non-essential tasks until further notice, so we can preserve the remaining supplies of treated water for drinking, sanitation and health care. Thank you for your cooperation.

Those customers include residents in Linglestown, Paxtonia, Colonial Park, Penbrook Borough and northern Swatara Township.Slowly escaping: Large tortoise rescued 3 miles from ranchIf you purchase a product or register for an account through a link on our site, we may receive compensation.
