The District is aware of the discoloration of the water on the High School\/Middle School campus.\u00a0 We have been in contact with the Yorktown Water District which provides water service to those buildings.\u00a0 They have received similar complaints from residents along that section of their system. The discoloration is a result of yesterday\u2019s fire along Peekskill Hollow Road and the fact that the Fire Department needed to tap into the fire hydrant on the school\u2019s property.<\/p>\n
The Yorktown Water District expects the discoloration of the water to dissipate throughout the day as water continues to flow through that pipe.\u00a0 We have been notified that the water on campus is potable and that any questions regarding its safety can be directed to the Yorktown Water District.<\/p>\n
All bottle-filling stations throughout the building contain water filters and bottled water is available to anyone who requests it.<\/p>\n
Thank you,<\/p>\n

From: Yorktown Water Lab<\/strong> <ytwlab@yorktownny.gov<\/a>><\/p>\n The continued discoloration of your water is not an indication of unsafe drinking water. Nothing has entered into the water main, it is due solely to the high rate of water flow disturbing the water in the main. This will dissipate as water at the school is used & water that has already settled replaces it. I hope that this information will ease any concerns that staff or students may have. My contact information is listed below should there be any additional questions.<\/em><\/p>\n Sincerely,<\/p>\n Jeffrey Dahlke The District is aware of the discoloration of the water on the High School\/Middle School campus.\u00a0 We have been in contact with the Yorktown Water District which provides water service to those buildings.\u00a0 They have received similar complaints from residents along that section of their system.
