Boil Water Advisory

The Department of Watershed Management (DWM) has issued a boil water advisory out of an abundance of caution and in accordance with Georgia EPD guidance for public advisory.

A failure at the Adamsville Pumping Station has caused a widespread water outage for customers in parts of the City of Atlanta from Martin L. King, Jr. Dr., south of I-20, to the City of Fairburn, the City of South Fulton, Chattahoochee Hills, Palmetto, and Union City.

Please use the interactive map to see if you are located in the boil water area: https://coadwm.maps.arcgis.com/apps/instant/lookup/index.html?appid=6f173ddd985a4789b40715a1fb748111
