Damage to power lines has resulted in the need for the Tolland Water Commission to implement a contingency plan to ensure that adequate water supply is available to their customers.
Therefore, the Water Commission would like to inform residents & business owners that water for the Tolland Main System will temporarily be supplied by Connecticut Water’s Northern System through an interconnection . Residents & business owners may detect a slightly different taste in their water due to the presence of chlorination.

At this point if you have not had a generator running your refrigerator and freezer, spoiled food should be disposed of. Please place any spoiled food in your green refuse tote for pick-up this week. Again, because of the storm your regular pick-up day will be delayed one day this week.
