Do Not Drink Order in Waterville, ME, Waterville, ME, USA
2 weeks ago
Waterville, Maine, United States
A Do Not Drink Order has been issued for Kennebec Water District customers due to the presence of firefighting foam in the water distribution system. The Do Not Drink Order will remain in place until water quality tests show that the water is safe to drink. This includes making ice cubes, food preparation, brushing teeth, or any other activity involving the consumption of water. The water is safe for bathing and cleaning.
The water district says the extent of the contamination is unclear and the order has been issued out of an abundance of caution. They say firefighting foam entered the water distribution system Monday morning during a fire on Elm Street in Waterville and the issue appears to be primarily in the areas of Elm Street and Main Street. The Kennebec Water District says they received testing and flushing guidance from the CDC and water district staff is working on flushing the contamination out of the system.

According to Trisha Robinson, waterborne disease supervisor, these types of germs can spread quickly and widely if people who are or have recently been ill swim in the same water with others. It’s critical that people stay out of any water until at least 72 hours after symptoms go away so we can stop the spread of the virus.
The beach at Schulze Lake was closed over the weekend and remained closed Monday. The MDH is asking people to stay home and not visit other beaches if they are experiencing illness that involves vomiting or diarrhea.
Norovirus is very contagious and is easily transmitted from person to person most through the oral/fecal route. Considering that hand sanitizer does NOT work against this virus, it is important to wash your hands with soap frequently. Use bleach to clean and disinfect surfaces.
