Greenlawn Water District Residents Assured Water Supply Is Safe To Drink

The Greenlawn Water District Board of Commissioners has assured consumers that the District experienced no interruptions in water supply as a result of Hurricane Sandy. Most importantly, the District’s water supply is safe to drink and no boil water advisories have been issued.

“We began preparing for Hurricane Sandy long before the storm actually hit.” Commissioner Jim Logan stated. “Our staff was fully prepared. During the storm, we had additional personnel on site around the clock to handle any potential emergencies. The staff did an excellent job ensuring that our consumers would have clean and safe water to drink during and after the massive storm. All Greenlawn consumers should rest assured that our distribution system will continue to be vigorously monitored.”

Although power outages impacted several plants and facilities, a series of emergency backup generators kept the District water supply pumping on a normal schedule. As a result, there were no reports of water loss. A portion of the pump stations were switched to generator power since the beginning of the storm.

Please be advised that the Board of Elections of the Greenlawn Water District shall meet on Wednesday, November 21, 2012 between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 10:00 a.m. at the Greenlawn Water District office, 45 Railroad Street, Greenlawn, NY, for the purpose of preparing the rolls of registered voters of the Greenlawn Water District.

The annual election of the Greenlawn Water District will be held Tuesday, December 11, 2012, between the hours of 3:00 p.m. – 9:00 p.m., at the Greenlawn Water District office 45 Railroad Street, Greenlawn, NY.

Please note that in 2012 and thereafter, only those persons who have registered with the County Board of Elections on or before the 23rd day before the Water District election day shall be eligible to vote. In 2012, such registration must take place on or before Monday, November 19.
