Village of Newark calls for water conservation; repairs scheduled

The Village of Newark in Wayne County is requiring water conservation measures for all customers.

Working with the NYS Health Department, officials say that the mandatory conservation is the result of repairs involving a transmission line. All non-essential water use is prohibited.

The repairs will begin next Tuesday, February 5 at 5:00 a.m.  Officials say the work should be completed Wednesday, February 6, at 5:00 a.m.

For more information on how to conserve water, contact the Village of Newark at 315-331-4770 or the NYS Department of Health at 315-789-3030
