Voluntary Water Restrictions

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: (Bristol, CT), October 3, 2025

Voluntary Water Restrictions

Mayor Jeffery Caggiano announced today that the Bristol Water and Sewer Department, as a Department of the City of Bristol, is notifying customers that the City’s reservoirs have declined to 70 percent capacity from the lack of rain and that the Water and Sewer Department has issued Voluntary Water Restrictions effective immediately.

The Bristol Water and Sewer Department in coordination with the Mayor’s office is requesting that customers limit the amount of outside water use and adhere to the Department’s policy on Odd / Even watering.

Mayor Caggiano stated: “I want to congratulate the Bristol Water and Sewer Department for managing our water source this year in the midst of a drought to get us to this point. Hopefully the levels will rise soon with fall rains.”

Anyone with questions on the restrictions or the City’s water supply can contact the Bristol Water Department at 860-582-7431. Information on the Voluntary Restrictions along with other ways to conserve water can also be found on the Bristol Water and Sewer Departments website at www.bristolctwatersewer.gov or on the Bristol Water and Sewer Departments and Mayor’s Office Facebook pages.
