The Chautauqua County Health Department has issued a boil water advisory and mandatory water conservation order for the village of Fredonia. The measures were prompted by a disruption in water treatment and a break in a main water line.
Officials are urging residents to boil tap water before use and to reduce water consumption until the issue is resolved and water quality is restored.
**Why this matters**
Boiling water helps eliminate potential contaminants that may have entered the supply due to the treatment disruption and main break. Following the advisory protects public health by preventing waterborne illnesses. Conserving water also helps maintain system pressure and supports repair efforts.
