RRSD CEO Dan Brown said in a statement inspections of the remaining pipes and hangers were also satisfactorily completed with the exception of one expansion fitting which was found to be faulty and must be replaced with a new section of pipe.
The RRSD is still expecting to restore full water service through the Highway 48 connection to Gaston and Northampton County this weekend. “Consumers are asked to continue conserving water for essential use only and are reminded that Roanoke Rapids Sanitary District strongly advises boiling water for human consumption until further notice; which will be dependent on the results of water quality testing in progress.”
