Residents are being warned that because of the road work on Halibut Point Road, water service will be shut off from the Channel Club out to the end of the road on Monday, May 19. The shut-off will last from 8:30 AM to 3 PM, said project manager Mike Ashton, of ASRC McGraw.

Once service is restored, residents and businesses must boil any water before drinking it for at least 24 hours. For more information, residents can call Ashton at 907-305-0411.

An earlier message on Raven Radio announced a boil water notice in effect today (Fri 5-16-14). There is NO boil water notice today. The water shut-off was originally scheduled for this week, but was postponed until this coming Monday to accommodate a cruise ship moored at the Old Sitka Dock, which had contracted with the city to buy water.
