Water Conservation Advisory - City of Rensselaer and Town of East Greenbush

PUBLIC NOTICE
Update: April 8, 2025

Due to ongoing water maintenance activities at the Cross Street Pump Station in Troy and
necessary repairs to the Pump Station's main water valves, the City of Rensselaer and the Town
of East Greenbush will continue to operate under a water conservation advisory until further
notice.

Jointly, the City of Rensselaer and Town of East Greenbush are monitoring the water levels
continually throughout each day. At this time, households can resume regular usage. Residents
may use their dishwashers and proceed with laundry as they normally would throughout the
week.

We have discussed with the Fire Chiefs the emergency use of hydrants throughout both
the City and the Town during this time. During this advisory, use of water for filling pools, hot
tubs, lawn sprinklers and hoses should not be considered.

Due to the fact that we are currently operating our auxiliary pump (our back-up) while the three (3) main pumps are replaced and the pipes within the station. We will continue to monitor and
keep the advisory on. The situation will be reviewed and discussed daily between the City and
the Town until the pump replacement and pipework is complete.

Please note: There is no boil water advisory in effect.
We will provide updates as conditions change. This advisory is subject to change daily.
