Drought watch for Strasburg, Virginia

AFFECTED AREAS:
Strasburg, VA

Start Date: 10/28/2014 -  
Strasburg was in a drought watch effective Oct. 28 after the North Fork of the Shenandoah River fell below the trigger level indicated in the town’s water-treatment plant permit. Water customers were asked to voluntarily conserve water. The drought plan the town currently uses is more conservative and encourages water conservation earlier than the town's previous drought plan. Northern Virginia Daily (Strasburg, Va.), Oct. 28, 2014
