The following municipalities remain under a boil water advisory until water quality test results are received: Aberdeen, East Brunswick, South River, Spotswood and Helmetta. Middlesex Water will continue to update this website once we have received information from these local municipal water utilities that the Department of Environmental Protection has lifted the advisory. Those customers in municipalities still under the advisory should continue to boil their water for one minute for the following: drinking, cooking or baking, making ice cubes, taking medication, brushing teeth, washing food, mixing baby formula or food, mixing juices or drinks, feeding pets and all other consumption.
The Company will be posting updates on its website home page at www.middlesexwater.com under WATER EMERGENCIES as water quality results become available.
