Boil Water Advisory Instructions
As per New York State Health Department recommendations:
- Bring tap water to a rolling boil and maintain the boil for at least one minute.
- Let the water cool before use.
- Use boiled or bottled water for drinking, cooking, making ice, washing fruits and vegetables, and brushing teeth.
For detailed instructions from the New York State Department of Health on boil water advisories, please visit:

This resource provides comprehensive guidance on safely boiling water during advisories and additional precautions to ensure your health and safety.
Water Appearance Notice
Due to fluctuations in water pressure during the repair process, some users may notice their water appears milky. This is caused by tiny air bubbles in the water that are not visible to the naked eye. This is normal and not a cause for concern. The water is safe for bathing, cleaning, and similar uses.
If you are located outside of these areas, there is no need to boil your water. If you are in the impacted areas listed above, you must follow the boil water advisory instructions.
We will notify you when the boil water advisory has been lifted. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation during this time.
For further updates, please visit the Village of Fonda website or contact us directly with any questions.
Sincerely,
Village of Fonda
