Boil Water Advisory for Town of Hartwick
HARTWICK, NY (WUTR/WFXV/WPNY) — The Hartwick Water District has issued a Boil Water Advisory for all of its users until further notice. The advisory was issued on Friday, May 9 due to positive test results of bacteria in samples of the water from Hartwick.

Any individual experiencing the following symptoms should consult their physician: severe diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, or abdominal cramps. Operators of food service businesses should take special notice of the advisory and consult with the Department of Health for special instructions regarding food preparation, cleaning and ice-making.
