BURLINGTON, Vt. (WCAX) - Burlington and some Colchester residents are being asked to conserve water due to a problem at the Burlington filtration plant.

City officials are asking all Burlington residents, as well as those in the Colchester Fire District 2 area , to limit non-essential water including laundry, dishwashing, and outdoor watering.

The Burlington drinking water plant is experiencing high demands due to a booster pump issue that has reduced available supplies.

Officials aren’t sure how long the notice will last.
