HEY CITY OF RICHMOND! YOU HAVE POTABLE WATER AGAIN! . The boil water advisory has been lifted in the Greater Richmond area, also including the counties of Hanover, Henrico and Goochland, which have been under boil water advisories this week.

April Bingham stepped down from her role leading Richmond's Department of Public Utilities on Wednesday, according to a city press release. Anthony “Scott” Morris will take over the role in an interim capacity.

RVA will undergo a review of the events that led to the water system failure and soon would announce the details of that process, according to Mayor @DannyAvula. He and @GovernorVA have discussed beginning investigations into what led to the outage.

Do you work in the service industry? Have you lost hours because your restaurant/bar/bakery/etc. is closed? Have you been off since before the holidays and unable to work this week because of the current water situation in RVA?. If this is you (or someone you know) let us know!.

The city is currently offering bottled water to residents at 10 locations between 9:30 a.m. and 11:30 a.m., as well as 3 p.m. to 5 p.m.

Richmonders likely will need to continue boiling water for another day. But at about midnight Tuesday, two pumps at one of the city’s water facilities began working again, and water pressure should be restored later today (hopefully).
