The Borough of Bloomingdale announced a public notice on November 5, 2025, alerting residents to a disinfectant treatment technique (TT) violation in the municipal water system.
According to the official announcement posted on the borough's website, the violation involves the water disinfection process, though specific details about the nature and extent of the issue were not immediately available in the initial notice.
Disinfectant treatment technique violations occur when water systems fail to meet federal requirements for maintaining proper disinfection levels or procedures designed to eliminate harmful bacteria and other microorganisms from drinking water. These regulations are enforced by the Environmental Protection Agency under the Safe Drinking Water Act.
The borough has published the notice in compliance with federal notification requirements, which mandate that water utilities inform customers when certain violations occur. Public water systems are required to issue such notices within specific timeframes to ensure transparency and public safety.
Residents seeking additional information about the violation, including any recommended precautions or boil water advisories, are encouraged to contact the Borough of Bloomingdale's water and sewer department or visit the official borough website for updates.
The timing and resolution of the violation, as well as any potential health impacts or required actions by residents, may be detailed in the full public notice document available on the borough's website. Water quality violations are typically addressed through corrective measures implemented by the water utility in coordination with state and federal regulatory agencies.
This is a developing story, and additional details will be provided as they become available from borough officials.
