Virginia’s Capital Is Under a Boil-Water Advisory After More Water Treatment Operations Issues

Officials in Richmond, Virginia, issued a boil-water advisory on May 27, 2025, affecting approximately 230,000 residents in areas including Ginter Park, Byrd Park, and Carytown. The advisory was prompted by an operational issue at the water treatment plant, where high turbidity clogged filters and temporarily reduced water production. The advisory remains in effect while recovery and prevention efforts are underway.
